Down on the Yard is a firsthand account of survival, consequence, and transformation inside the California prison system.
Before becoming a published author, Glenn Langohr served time on drug-related charges and experienced incarceration at multiple custody levels, including high-security yards and solitary confinement. This memoir takes readers inside the realities of prison politics, racial divisions, gang structures, and the daily code required to survive.
Rather than sensationalizing violence, Down on the Yard examines the institutional pressures and personal decisions that shape life behind the walls. It explores the culture of prison alliances, the unwritten rules governing inmate behavior, and the psychological toll of long-term incarceration.
At its core, this is not only a story about prison life - it is a reflection on responsibility, consequence, and the possibility of redemption forged in one of the harshest environments in America.
This book is part of the Life in Lockdown prison memoir series, documenting the realities of life inside the California prison system.
