The Prison Opened And The Captive Loosed: Or The Life Of A Thief As Seen In The Death Of A Penitent is a book written by Josiah Viney and published in 1854. The book tells the story of a thief who, after a life of crime, finds redemption and salvation in his final moments before death. The narrative is based on the true story of a man who was imprisoned for theft and eventually came to repentance and faith in God.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores different aspects of the thief's life and transformation. The first chapter introduces the reader to the main character and describes his criminal activities. The following chapters detail his experiences in prison and his eventual conversion to Christianity. The final chapter describes the thief's death and the impact of his life on those around him.Throughout the book, Viney explores themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the power of faith to transform lives. He also offers insights into the criminal justice system of the time and the conditions faced by prisoners in Victorian-era England.Overall, The Prison Opened And The Captive Loosed is a powerful and thought-provoking book that offers a unique perspective on the life of a criminal and the possibility of redemption.
