since america is globally reputed as being a “democratic haven” and the “land of freedom,” writings that come out of american prisons can potentially present a challenge to everything the nation was founded on. jack london, a famous american writer who was incarcerated for 30 days in the erie county penitentiary, is an example of such a challenger; in his memoir ""pinched": a prison experience" he recalls how he was automatically sentenced to 30 days in prison with no chance to defend himself or even plead innocent or guilty. while sitting in the courtroom he thought to himself, "behind me were the many generations of my american ancestry. one of the kinds of liberty those ancestors of mine fought and died for was the right of trial by jury. this was my heritage, stained sacred by their blood…" london’s "sacred heritage" made no difference, however. it is stories such as london’s that make american prison literature a common and popular subtopic of the broader genre of literature.
