One of the few studies of its kind, this political history of the Louisiana penal system from its origin to the near-present places heavy-emphasis on the development of penal policy and shows how the vicissitudes of the system have reflected the prevailing social, economic, and political views of the state as a whole.The author traces Louisiana's doleful history of convict leasing from 1844 to 1901 and provides a close look at the machinations of the notorious Major Samuel L. James, who controlled the state penal system for more than thirty brutal years.Professor Carleton analyses the effects of the Huey Long regime and the heel-slashings of the 1950s which brought the penitentiary the label of ""America's Worst Prison."" Finally, he traces the slow, uphill battle of those interested in better treatment and preparatory rehabilitation for state prisoners.""At its worst,"" says Carleton, Louisiana's penal system ""has been a barbaric and exploitative form of state slavery. . .At best it has been a progressive correctional institution, administered by professional penologists with little or no interference from penal reactionaries or politicians.""Politics and Punishment is a significant contribution to penal historiography and will no doubt serve as a model for similar studies in the field.
The massacre of 120 emigrant men, women, and children at Mountain Meadows on September 11, 1857, by Mormons and Mormon-incited Indians shocked the nation. It was not until the spring of 1859 that federal authorities began to conduct inquiries into the massacre. Bvt. Major James H. Carleton, 1st Dragoons, was instructed to investigate the even while en route to Salt Lake City. Carleton's account of May 1859 from the bone-strewn ground is full, accurate, and understandably emotional.
