LOOK BACK IN ANGER, NAH... RUN AT 'EM - By: CRAZY GIRL, 05 Sep 2005
Well, certainly, Mr Bronson has a propensity to lose his head & go off on a one. I was fuelled to buy this book after reading of Bronson on Bronsonmania. Everything said on there is proven by the conetent of this book.

I would not for one minute think Mr Bronson to be some sort of tame animal, caged behind bars to be oggled at by people, but people do oggle & this book alllows me to oggle at him as much & as often as I wish.

An easy read, good narrative that would put many TV dramas to shame & a flow that lulled me to think alll was well, until I was awakaned from my lull by the weird goings on behind bars & in the asylums. Oh, & I am a woman... so this sort of thing should dismay me, however, I was fascinated. Well worth taking on holiday, if only to help swat the flies.


the view from inside - By: , 19 Aug 2005
Bronson writes very honestly about his incarceration, & about the madness that caused him to start prison riots, rooftop protests an take guards as hostages.
Bronson talks about being 'ghosted' around the country from prison to prison, & names the prison officers who helped him, & the ones who were mean.
never afraid to speak his mind, Bronson paints a colourful portrait of the inside, & some of the villains who give prison life character.
Prison Life - By: , 14 May 2004
This book is a true insight into modern prison life & the effects it has on a person. Charles Bronson probably has the best insight on the subject, spending the majority of his time in solitary confinement. In this book he shows a surprising normality & his reasoning on his own incarceration is fascinating. This book is a well explained account of a person who has experienced long term imprisonment; humorous yet disturbing, & it will definitely put you off experiencing a spell in the slammer for life.
