LONG BAY
I was
pleased to receive my copy of the newly released book “Long Bay” written by
Patrick Kennedy.
It is
extremely well written and the production and photographs within are impressive.
It is a complete
history of Long Bay Prison dating right back to its conception. You will recognize some of the names and
locations within the book from my eBooks.
Patrick
Kennedy was the son of Ted Kennedy, the chief male nurse at the Long Bay
Complex when I commenced working there in May of 1971. As I only received the book today, I am yet
to read it from cover to cover, but a quick scan through reveals four years of
hard and precise work by Patrick, ensuring the minutest detail is verified and
correct.
If you are
interested in genuine prison history, including the people who worked within
them, and the prisoners who were incarcerated within the walls, I highly
recommend that you obtain a copy of “Long Bay”.
It is a unique, historical manuscript that has never been produced in
the same factual manner.
Patrick Kennedy's book is available at www.longbay.net.au.
This I
believe.
