Pentridge: Australia’s most infamous jail

Ron Isherwood and John Killick

In this new book in his prison series James Phelps explores Pentridge, Australia’s most notorious prison near Melbourne with two former inmates. Pentridge was closed in 1997 and now offers tours of a place which was described as the worst prison Australia has ever seen, a place of callous brutality. What was life really like behind the bluestone walls of Pentridge?
