A letter from a prisoner,

"A year or two ago, you mailed me a selection of books at my request at no charge . I have always intended to make a donation to you, but have been unable to do so until now.

I and others have benefited greatly from your books. I don't believe anyone has left prison based on the information, but our lives have been affirmitively enriched.

The Prisoner Cookbook had me laughing so hard that just thinking about it now gives me a smile and helps me forget this God-forsaken place, if only for a few minutes. Pigeon and Rat? Who would have thought! (In the winter we have seagulls here, and wild geese crapping everywhere on all the sidewalks year 'round, but I'm unaware of anyone catching one.)

Kindest Regards,

Redacted"
