A rare 'outsider' view of prison which casts new light on hidden events. Of wide professional, penal and general interest, a woman's voice in a strongly macho setting.
Charlie Bronson has spent decades in solitary confinement, and yet has stayed as fit as a fiddle, gaining several world strength and fitness records in the process. This book, a guide to getting fit and staying fit, reveals just how he's done it. It shows you the best way to burn those calories, tone your abs, and build your stamina.
Charles Bronson is the most feared and the most notorious convict in the prison system. "Insanity" is a look into the mind of a true individual - a wild, inspired, single-minded, fascinating man, oppressed not only by the workings of his singular mind, but also by the system that confines him.
Charlie has taken his 24 years of experience of prison dwelling and condensed it into one handy and comprehensive volume. Moved regularly around the prisons of the British Isles he has sampled all that prison life has to offer, taking in both the historic and pre-historic buildings that comprise Britain's infamous prison system.
When he is unlocked, up to 12 prison officers - sometimes in riot gear and with dogs - are standing by. Yet this is a man of great warmth and humour who has never killed anyone and has often dealt with his gruelling life with humour - during a siege in 1993 he demanded an inflatable doll and a cup of tea.
Charles Bronson is the most feared and most notorious convict in the prison system. Yet he is a man of great warmth and humour; a man of huge artistic talent who exhibits his drawings around the country; a man with an overpowering urge not to let the system get him down.
