Synopsis "Castle of Broken Boys Volume 5"
In 1894, seven wards left San Quentin to spend the rest of their sentences at the new State reform school in Ione. It didn't take much for the courts to commit a boy to the Preston School of Industry. Career criminals accounted for a major portion of the population, but orphans, vagrants, and children whose parents could no longer care for them also called the facility on the hill their home. Volume 5 visits with some of the staff, reviews self-government and the parole and credit system--investigating parole failures, examines violence at the facility against both other wards and staff, and discusses punishment used at the facility. This volume also reports on facility finances, special events and religion as a reform tool. Includes over a hundred archive photos.
