About This Vintage 1969 Edition

"The Crime of Imprisonment" by George Bernard Shaw, illustrated by William Gropper, is a thought-provoking work published by Greenwood Press in New York. This edition, first reprinted by Greenwood in 1969, offers an insightful critique of the penal system, reflecting Shaw's enduring influence as a playwright and social critic. Originally copyrighted in 1946 by the Philosophical Library, this reprint maintains the original's incisive exploration of legal and social reform. The book is particularly notable for its illustrations by Gropper, which add a compelling visual dimension to Shaw's arguments. This ex-library copy from Mesa State College bears the usual markings and lacks a dust jacket, but remains a significant piece for collectors interested in Shaw's lesser-known works on social justice.
