This is the story of the life of the United States Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth military prison called The Castle. This is the story of a magnificent structure built by the inmates, brick by brick—some 6.5 million of them, Who quarried the stone and built the walls surrounding the prison, of the inmate who designed the keys for the cells,…the escapee, who is still at large and who sends Christmas Cards each year……no return address! … of the great escapes, a few successful, all but one recaptured.
