Al Capone, George Machine Gun Kelly, Alvin Karpis, Dock Barker--these were just a few of the legendary public enemies for whom America's first supermax prison was created. In Alcatraz: The Gangster Years, David Ward brings their stories to life, along with vivid accounts of the lives of other infamous criminals who passed through the penitentiary from 1934 to 1948. Ward, who enjoyed unprecedented access to FBI, Federal Bureau of Prisons, and Federal Parole records, conducted interviews with one hundred former Alcatraz convicts, guards, and administrators to produce this definitive history of The Rock. Alcatraz is the only book with authoritative answers to questions that have swirled about the prison: How did prisoners cope psychologically with the harsh regime? What provoked the protests and strikes? How did security flaws lead to the sensational escape attempts? And what happened when these habitual, incorrigible convicts were finally released? By shining a light on the most famous prison in the world, Ward also raises timely questions about today's supermax prisons.Binding Type: Paperback

Turning One Big Room into Two
Color: Black
My apartment is basically one big open space, so my living room, dining table, and “office” used to all blend together. After I got this screen, the whole layout finally makes sense. I set it up in the middle and now I have a clear work side and a chill side, and my background for video calls looks way more professional. This divider is a fixed style, so when you set it down it forms a nice straight line. Visually it really feels like a light, mini wall, which is perfect for breaking up a large area. It’s tall and long enough that it actually blocks what you want to hide, so you get real privacy, not just a decorative panel. The woven texture looks nice up close and doesn’t feel cheap, and the color is easy to match with other furniture. It’s not overly heavy either and I can slide it to a new spot by myself when I want to change the room layout. Most days I pull it out as a clean background for meetings and classes, and when I don’t need it as a divider I just move it against the wall and it still looks good there. If you have a big open room or a rental and want to create separate zones without doing any construction, this screen is a simple, effective solution. I’m already recommending it to friends who need more privacy in their space.

AKTOP Room Divider, Freestanding
Color: Black
AKTOP Room Divider, Freestanding ...all parts fit well and easy to assemble and looks great. Using it for church & move back & forth weekly. Screws come out so I reinforced legs. Better if you don't move around a lot or you will need to reinforce legs. Priced well.

Simple, sturdy and perfect for creating privacy
Color: Black
This room divider is very easy to set up and surprisingly sturdy. It works great for creating a quick private space in a room without installing anything permanently. The fabric looks clean and modern, and it’s lightweight enough to move around when needed. Perfect for separating spaces in a living room or studio.
