Alcatraz : island of change / by James P. Delgado ; photography by Roy Eisenhardt. - [San Francisco, CA] : Golden Gate National Park Association, c1991. - 48 p. : ill. 27 cm.
Alcatraz the island has a history much longer than the years its famous prison was in operation, and this 48-page book traces more than a hundred years of island history -- as a fort, as a military prison, and finally as the "inescapable" federal penitentiary that housed such notorious criminals as Al Capone, Machine Gun Kelly, and Robert "Birdman" Stroud. The island is now part of a national park and visited by nearly one million curious people each year. www.alibris.com
