Publisher's Synopsis

A Prison Chaplain On Dartmoor is a book written by Clifford Rickards and first published in 1920. The book is a memoir of the author's experiences as a chaplain at Dartmoor Prison, a notorious high-security prison located in Devon, England. In the book, Rickards provides a detailed account of his daily life inside the prison, including his interactions with the inmates, staff, and other chaplains. He also shares his observations on the harsh living conditions and the impact of imprisonment on the mental and emotional well-being of the prisoners. The author's writing style is straightforward and honest, and he does not shy away from discussing the challenges he faced as a chaplain in a difficult environment. He also reflects on the spiritual and moral issues that arise in a prison setting, and how he tried to provide comfort and guidance to the inmates. Overall, A Prison Chaplain On Dartmoor is a compelling and insightful account of life inside one of Britain's most notorious prisons, written by a compassionate and dedicated chaplain who sought to make a positive difference in the lives of the prisoners under his care.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
