07 - You Cant Win by Jack Black

You Cant Win is a captivating autobiography originally serialized in the San Francisco Call and Post in 1925. Its compelling narrative quickly gained popularity, leading to its publication as a book in 1926. The author shares his harrowing journey as a professional thief traversing the Western US and Canada from the late 1880s until around 1910. His transformative experience began during his time in a Canadian prison, where he discovered a passion for reading through an extensive library. As the years passed, he became a voice for change, lecturing on criminology and advocating for prison reform. Tragically, he vanished in 1932, leaving behind a legacy that is both poignant and thought-provoking. (Summary by Brian Fullen)
