Stations of the Lost
The Treatment of Skid Row Alcoholics
Jacqueline P. Wiseman
368 pages
Stations of the Lost won the C. Wright Mills Award for Best Book in the Area of Social Problems.
The study considers the Skid Row alcoholic from two points of view, that of the alcoholic himself and that of the agents of social control who treat him.
A major discovery of Wiseman's research was that Skid Row men spend only about one third of the year on Skid Row.
The rest of the time is spent "making the loop"—going from Skid Row to city jail, to county jail, to the state mental hospital, to the missions, and back to Skid Row.
While these facilities are designed to handle or rehabilitate Skid Row men, they are actually used by these men as a means of survival.
