Coxsackie: The Life and Death of Prison Reform
The provided Book is an excerpt from a book examining the history of Coxsackie, a New York State Vocational Institution for young male offenders. The book analyzes the institution's attempts at prison reform, exploring the interplay between idealistic reform goals and the harsh realities of institutional life, including racial tensions and violence. The authors utilize Coxsackie's history to illuminate broader issues in American prison reform during the 20th century, focusing on the challenges of rehabilitation and the persistence of punitive practices.
