Weeping in the Playtime of Others: America’s Incarcerated Children

Though the title identifies it as a second edition, this book is a reprint with a new preface of a 1976 work (McGraw-Hill). From 1972 through 1975, investigative reporter Wooden visited correctional facilities in 30 states where juveniles between the ages of five and 16 were being held; this is his report. Annotation c.
