Prison Life Thoughts! is a book written by Simon Mohler Landis in 1872. It is a memoir of his experiences as a prisoner during the American Civil War. Landis was a member of the Confederate Army and was captured by Union forces in 1864. He spent the next year and a half in various prisons, including the infamous Andersonville prison in Georgia.In the book, Landis describes the harsh conditions of prison life, including overcrowding, lack of food and water, and disease. He also reflects on the psychological effects of imprisonment, including loneliness, despair, and the struggle to maintain one's sense of self.Despite the difficult circumstances, Landis maintains a positive outlook and offers words of encouragement to his fellow prisoners. He also reflects on his own personal growth during his time in prison, including his newfound faith in God.Prison Life Thoughts! provides a firsthand account of the realities of Civil War-era prisons and offers insights into the human experience of confinement and survival.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
