In sickness, in health ... and in jail : what happened when my husband unexpectedly went to prison for two years [Hoopla electronic resource] / Mel Jacob.
Three years ago Mel Jacob's life took an unexpected twist when her husband was jailed for selling a crossbow and an antique rifle through his online mail-order business. He was a man who'd never even got a speeding ticket, someone who'd wait for the light to turn to green before crossing the road. Now he was facing a four year sentence in a prison world that was utterly alien to everything he'd known before, and his wife and two young children were facing not just a life without a husband and father, but navigating the uncharted waters of having a husband and father doing jail time. This is Mel's funny and poignant account of trying to raise two children and maintain a respectable middle-class life while her husband is locked up with some of the toughest criminals in the state.
