Historically reading has been a way to "escape" from the harshness of reality. The designation of escape in literature, known as escapist fiction, dates back to the 1930s.

The first attempt to escape the prison was made on April 27, 1936, by Joseph Bowers (Prisoner AZ210), who was assigned the duty of burning trash at the incinerator. He was working burning garbage at the island's incinerator during duty hours when he suddenly ran and began scaling a chain link fence at the edge of the island in an apparent attempt to make for the shore.
