About this title

Synopsis

How did the land of the free become the home of the world's largest prison system? Elizabeth Hinton traces the rise of mass incarceration to an ironic source: not the War on Drugs of the Reagan administration but the War on Crime that began during Johnson's Great Society at the height of the civil rights era.

About the Author

Elizabeth Hinton is Assistant Professor of History and African and African American Studies at Harvard University.
