Panzram: A Journal of Murder

Book • 2002
This book is a gripping memoir and self-analysis by Carl Panzram, who was born in 1891 on a Minnesota farm and died in 1930 on the gallows at the U.S.

Penitentiary, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas.

Panzram was imprisoned for most of his life from the age of twelve and was brutally punished.

His journal graphically illustrates the arbitrary cruelty of his fellow human beings, details of prison abuses, and his own sordid and tragic life.

The authors add an historical and sociological framework to Panzram's words, providing a warning from America's past to the new prison-industrial complex era.
