Summary "Convict Life at the Minnesota State Prison, Stillwater, Minnesota" by W. C. Heilbron is a historical account published in the early 20th century. The book explores the daily experiences of inmates within the Minnesota State Prison, focusing on various aspects of prison life including the reception process, work assignments, discipline, and the management of the institution. It aims to provide an accurate representation of inmate life and reflect the changing attitudes towards rehabilitation and reform in penal institutions. The opening of the book provides a comprehensive overview of what new prisoners can expect upon their arrival at the Minnesota State Prison. It details the process of being received, including the examination of commitment papers, the initial search, and the issuance of a prison uniform. Heilbron describes the classification of prisoners into different grades, each with varying privileges and living conditions, emphasizing the importance of behavior in determining an inmate's treatment.
