Secrets Of The American Bastile is a historical non-fiction book written by William Henry Winder in 1863. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the American prison system during the 19th century. Winder argues that the American prison system was a corrupt institution that violated the basic human rights of its inmates. He exposes the mistreatment, abuse, and torture that prisoners endured in the prisons, which he refers to as American Bastiles. The author also highlights the political and economic factors that led to the creation and maintenance of these institutions. The book is a scathing critique of the American prison system and a call to action for reform. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American criminal justice system and the fight for human rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
