About This Item
Albuquerque, New Mexico: University of New Mexico Press, 2014. 12th Printing . Trade Paperback. Fine. 6" x 9. Trevor, John - Diagram of New Mexico State Penitentiary. 268 Pages Indexed. This a 2012 12th reprint of the 1983 copyright. A modern horror story told in graphic detail. Morris's meticulous documentation traces prison corruption and proving the tragedy could have been avoided. It is inevitable that this or any other account of what took place behind those walls would be sensationalistic but Morris goes beyond that to expose the corruption, the cronyism, the wholesale negligence and the stupidity that keyed the riot and continue to infect the entire New Mexico penal system. A profoundly disturbing book. Contents in Seven Chapters: Foreshadow, Take over, Carnage, Siege, Surrender, Aftermath, and Foreshadow. Plus Epilogue and Notes.
