Summary
"Green Bay native Joe Verdegan spent nearly 27 years working the front lines as an officer at Green Bay Correctional Institution in Allouez, Wisconsin, which one of three maximum-security prisons located in Wisconsin. Verdegan provides a most unique perspective of the often unpredictable and volatile world where an officer can earn his or her salary in less than 30 seconds responding to everything from gang-related brawls, staff assaults, suicide and escape attempts and everything in between. Working inside a maximum-security prison is the furthest thing from any 9-5 job and through his interviews with more than 150 past and current prison employees, Verdegan tells the real-life stories that will make you laugh and cry."- Amazon.com
