Kramer. The critically acclaimed Images of America series — a comprehensive examination of historic American landmarks, events, and towns — has released this latest title on Maine's naval prison at Portsmouth. Known affectionately as the "Castle" or "Rock," the facility remained open from 1908 to 1974 and boasted a fearsome reputation for bringing back escaped prisoners dead or alive. This enticing book pulls back the curtain to examine this mysterious 20th century prison in full, illustrated detail! 128 pages, 183 B&W photos, 6½"x 9¼", softcover.
