Captive Spirit

By Ron Kendrick

This book is not based on a true story. It is a true story. In 1969, a 22-year-old rookie walked through the gates of Strangeways into the prison of Wandsworth. Diving into the challenging world of life on the inside. Over five years, this gripping account reveals the realities of overcrowded cells, staff shortages, and the shadow of terrorism and gangs. Amidst the chaos, humour proved essential, turning daily struggles into unforgettable moments. With experience in essays, poetry, and creative writing, Ron Kendrick now shares his candid story. This memoir offers a unique, time-tested perspective on prison life, capturing the resilience and camaraderie of an unforgettable era.

Experience the raw, real-life tales that have been waiting 50 years to be told.
