| | Biography of John Howard |
| | It was a political sinecure without qualifications and it came as a surprise when Howard took the responsibilities of the appointment seriously and embarked on his inspection of prisons. | | | Despite this experience, the more critical event for John Howard would seem to have been his appointment as High Sheriff or Bedfordshire in 1773. | | | There can be no question that John Howard merits the accolade of being the father of prison reform. |
