10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!

Letters From Alcatraz By Michael Esslinger. EPUB (Perseu)
Letters from Alcatraz features an impressive collection of original
correspondence from inmates both on-and-off the Rock. Their letters
capture the true essence of life in prison, with fresh and historical
insights to their sufferings and occasional triumphs. It is a finer
example of history from one of America's most historical treasures.
This rare collection features many never before published personal
letters from Al Capone, George Machine Gun Kelly, Robert Stroud -
the Birdman of Alcatraz, Alvin Karpis, Henri Young, John & Clarence
Anglin, Roy Gardner and numerous others. Also included are narratives
on the Battle of Alcatraz and other harrowing escape attempts. The
letters are all presented in their original unedited form... revealing

confessionals of earnestness and probe their introspective thoughts.
Sometimes deep, and sometimes they are almost too overwhelmingly honest
in their descriptive accounts. Many represent their torn and textured
histories in crime and the intricately layered stories of life at
Alcatraz. Letters from Alcatraz is an epic exploration of a secret
cloak and dagger culture once hidden behind a mythical curtain. This
book is much more than a mere exercise in myth busting. Paired with its
contextual and intrinsic complexities, Letters from Alcatraz grants
readers privileged access to the formidable confinement conditions
endured by these inmates along with their compelling portraits, and a
thorough overview of the rich history of Alcatraz Island. The depth of
feeling in its story, its setting, its cast and sheer inimitability,
these are their lives in prose and the stories of the forgotten...
