Who Gets a Childhood?: Race and Juvenile Justice in Twentieth-Century Texas - Politics and Culture in the Twentieth-Century South
William S. Bush
Using Texas as a case study for understanding change in the American juvenile justice system over the past century, William S. Bush tells the story of three cycles of scandal, reform, and retrenchment, each of which played out in ways that tended to extend the privileges of a protected childhood to white middle- and upper-class youth.
