The
Meanest Man in Texas is the true life story of Clyde Thompson, a Texas
murderer turned preacher and his experiences as a "guest" of the Texas
Department of Corrections from 1928-1955. As such it is probably one of
the most detailed chronicles of prison life ever written, especially
during the period in which Thompson was incarcerated and where he earned
his nickname, "the meanest man in Texas."
Clyde Thompson killed two men when he was only 17 years on age. With three life sentences to serve and years in solitary
confinement, he reached a point where he was beyond human help. Only God
could save him.
