      abstract = {As banks crashed, belts tightened, and cupboards emptied  across the country, American prisons grew fat. Doing Time  in the Depression tells the story of the 1930s as seen from  the cell blocks and cotton fields of Texas and California  prisons, state institutions that held growing numbers of  working people from around the country and around the  world: overwhelmingly poor, disproportionately non-white,  and displaced by economic crisis. Ethan Blue paints a vivid  portrait of everyday life inside Texas and California's  penal systems.},
