A must-read for any correctional officer, prison warden, or law enforcement officer,
Confidence Men and Their Masquerades: Ten Things You Should Know About the American Inmate is a vital handbook of instruction in how to avoid falling into the traps laid by the American Inmate.
Laid out in ten succinct chapters, this book provides unique insight into the games inmates play, how to spot them, and how to side-step the traps inmates lay. Author Raymond H. Wells came by this knowledge the hard way: he has been an American Inmate since 2002.
"The primary goal of the American Inmate," Wells writes, "is to lessen the insufferable grind of day to day life." Inmates are skilled in methods of seduction. Wells teaches his readers how to recognize the seductions they use with one constant desire in mind-"to acquire the ultimate game changer: contraband."
If you work in a prison or jail,
Confidence Men and Their Masquerades: Ten Things You Should Know About the American Inmate will help you protect your job, your reputation, and ultimately your freedom from the cons employed by the American Inmate.
