Book Reviews of Teaching the Arts Behind Bars

Book Review: Right on target!
Summary: 5 Stars

Teaching the Arts Behind Bars is a fantastic book because its contributors are people who know what they are talking about because of their personal experience in the field of teaching the arts in prison. I know because I was a prisoner who maintained my humanity because of the encouragement of individuals like these men and women that teach in the gulags of the United States. It is a valuable book for someone who is interested in teaching in a institutional setting or is just plain curious. I may be biased based on the fact that I painted the cover piece for the book, but take that as a tribute to its honesty and value!
