Summary
"Many of the world's most important historical figures were imprisoned for holding unpopular or heretical beliefs. Some used their time behind bars to write books that shaped the course of history. This collection of new essays offers a wide-ranging examination of influential works written--in whole or in part--while their authors were in prison or exile"--
