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 Millbank Penitentiary, which was established in London in the early 19th century as a prison for convicts. Holford, who was a member of the prison committee, provides an in-depth analysis of the prison's architecture, management, and the daily lives of the prisoners. He also discusses the various punishments and rehabilitation programs that were implemented at the prison, as well as the challenges faced by the prison authorities in maintaining order and discipline among the inmates. The book sheds light on the harsh realities of prison life in the 19th century and provides valuable insights into the history of the British penal system. Overall, An Account of the General Penitentiary at Millbank is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of crime and punishment in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
