In 'Seven Wives and Seven Prisons' by L. A. Abbott, the author recounts his experiences of being in prison for bigamy, having married seven women in seven different states. Written in a straightforward and matter-of-fact style, Abbott's memoir provides a unique insight into the legal system and societal attitudes towards marriage in the 19th century. The book offers a fascinating glimpse into a little-known aspect of American history, shedding light on the harsh realities faced by those who found themselves on the wrong side of the law during that time period. Through detailed descriptions of his time in prison, Abbott delves into the emotional and psychological effects of his actions, making this a compelling read for anyone interested in true crime or historical narratives. L. A. Abbott was a real-life bigamist whose tumultuous life story inspired him to write 'Seven Wives and Seven Prisons'. His personal experiences with marriage and the legal system serve as the foundation for this gripping memoir, providing readers with a raw and unfiltered account of his time behind bars. Abbott's candid portrayal of his mistakes offers a valuable lesson in understanding the consequences of breaking societal norms and the importance of accountability. I highly recommend 'Seven Wives and Seven Prisons' to readers looking for a thought-provoking and meticulously researched narrative that explores the complexities of marriage, law, and morality. Abbott's honest and introspective writing style makes this book a compelling read that will leave a lasting impression on anyone interested in true crime or historical biographies.
