Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary 1934-1963
By James Fuller

A magazine sized booklet (44 pages) designed in a kind of delightfully low-rent newspapery style that lists all the escape attempts from the modern era (14 in toto) and some of the more famous prisoners (though none from the pCalifornia era for some reason). There is also a brief history as well. Though unmentioned in the text, the connections to San Nicolas' brief tenure as a prison colony is clear.
Year: 1982
