About the Author
Joseph Timilty is a former Boston city councilor who served five terms as Massachusetts state senator and ran three close races for mayor of Boston. He is known for his progressive legislation and his advocacy for affordable housing. Currently living in Canton, Massachusetts, he is a lobbyist who represents clients before the Massachusetts legislature.
After being convicted of conspiracy to commit fraud in a condominium development project in 1993, he secretly kept a journal during his four-month incarceration at the Schuylkill federal correctional facility in Minersville, Pennsylvania. Prison Journal: An Irreverent Look at Life on the Inside compiles his observations about his arrest and trial, his life in prison, and the aftereffects of his experiences.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
