You definitely need to have a demented mind to enjoy this book, and be interested about the prison systems, and what "really goes down" within them.  Couldn't put the book down.

An amazing book following several convicts at Leaven worth's Penitentiary. The author, Pete Earley was the first person to get full access to a prison and the Bureau of Prisons. Murderers, thieves, and men of the Aryan Brotherhood are the few that get mentioned and interviewed in the life inside Leavenworth.

From somebody who has been there, it's a good description of how things are inside a maximum security prison.
