Gloucester Prison was in continuous existence for nearly 222 years, from 1791, when the first prisoners moved in, until 2013, when it closed. 'A History of Gloucester Prison' covers the period from 1791 to 1950, and discusses the history of the buildings, the separate system which was practised there, the prison staff, the everyday lives of the prisoners, and less routine events, such as escapes and executions. It should be a useful addition to the bookshelves of readers with an interest in Gloucestershire history and crime history, or of anyone who has ever wondered what went on in the past behind the high walls of Gloucester Prison.

Two tops'ls! By the Lord, but you're the lad to get her home--drive her!" Unconsciously he had spoken the last few words aloud, and now the whole room was at his shoulder. It took such an announcement as that to wake them up. "Two tops'ls did you say? In this breeze? Where ?--where?" "Look," answered Peter with an indicating arm. "Look. See her now? Where's the glasses? Maybe I c'n make her out." He looked, and knew her. "It's the Nannie O, by the Lord! See her now?" They looked and saw her. They did not know her from any other vessel, but they saw the low, black hull with all the white sail. Tearing around the Point she was then, with her lee cat-heads just showing out of water.

Ain't he a dog though? Four lowers and two tops'ls, his deck awash to the hatches, two men to the wheel and the rest of the crew huggin' up under the weather-rail--yes, and glad they're so near home, I'll bet.
