An Account of the General Penitentiary at Millbank is a historical book written by George Holford in 1828. The book provides a detailed description of the General Penitentiary at Millbank, which was a prison in London during the 19th century. Holford offers an in-depth analysis of the prison's structure, management, and the conditions under which the inmates lived. He also discusses the history of the prison, its purpose, and the changes that were made to it over time. The book sheds light on the harsh realities of prison life in the 19th century, including the lack of sanitation, overcrowding, and the use of physical punishment. Holford's account is based on his personal observations and interviews with inmates, staff, and officials. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of prisons, criminal justice, and social reform in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
