Jerry's Riot: The True Story of Montana's 1959 Prison Disturbance
"Jerry’s Riot," the 445-page book written by Montana native Kevin S. Giles, is the inside story of a disturbing riot during an era of extensive prison violence in America. This true crime book examines in revealing detail the explosion that resulted in Deer Lodge, Montana, when former Alcatraz Island convict Jerry Myles collided with reform warden Floyd Powell. "Jerry’s Riot" takes the reader inside the prison walls to visit the lives of guards and prisoners who experienced the riot. The book contains the only reconstruction of the event from beginning to end. The story draws extensively from federal and state records and the author’s interviews with hostages, prisoners and others.
