Elizabeth Howard started teaching language arts in 1961, discovering that not all students are learning to read. This is the story of her final semester in a public school in 1993, the high-security prison Adobe Mountain in Phoenix, AZ. Her story began as an attempt to help adolescent boys learn critical thinking. The story ends with an escape from institutionalization.
