Abstract

A long prison sentence leads Michael Irwin to a revelation that his experiences of studying criminology with The Open University and discovering classic prison research studies might offer him a new path.

Irwin tells of his struggle to combine the two and contribute to the emerging work of British Convict Criminology.
