Revised edition of this brutal memoir which served as the basis for Jack London’s Star Rover. This autobiographical account provides an invaluable first-hand look at the brutality that characterized the American prison system in the West at the beginning of the 20th century including the extensive uses of torture devices such as the strait jacket and the derrick which were later banned.

1914456p. + Portrait Frontis and original full page photographs. Top edge gold. Very XLib. [Ownerships obscured by black magic marker]. 12mo. Quarter red leather over marbled boards. Gilt lettered spine. Raised bands. Spine slightly marred. Hardbound. William 'Just Plain Bill' Sulzer (1863-1941) was a U.S. Congressional Representative from New York between 1895 and 1912. With the backing of Tammany Hall, he became the Governor of New York on January 1, 1913. He soon annoyed Tammany's leader 'Boss' Charles F. Murphy by refusing to accept his guidance on appointments and nominations, ordering investigations of corruption in state agencies, and other similar actions. Tammany politicians brought false charges against him for diverting some campaign contributions to his own use and, with a legislative majority, they made the charges stick. He was impeached and removed from office on October 13, 1913. With Reformers like Thomas leading the fight, he was essentially vindicated, being elected to the New York State Assembly less than a month later. Thomas was deeply involved in Reform Politics, and was the Commonwealth Land candidate for Justice of New York Supreme Court 1st District in 1924. AMERICANA BOX 11
