Cocaine Wars [Hardcover]

Paul Eddy (Author), Hugo Sabogal (Author), Sara Walden (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1988

In the five years since President Reagan declared war on drugs, the price of cocaine--the most reliable indicator of its availability--has fallen by more than half. This report scans the front lines and shows how the lure of profits combined with disastrous decisions in Washington make a mockery of U.S. law enforcement.

Finally, an accurate account of the drug situation that took place around Miami, Bahamas and originating in Columbia. Interesting to read of the stand the Bahamian government played in all the dealings. An excellent read!

This review is from: The Cocaine Wars (Paperback)

Forget the Glorification of such disgusting behavior such as Drugdealing and Drugs, This Book Is The Real thing on how these monsters, with the excuse of supply and demand made their money and their fates. It ain't pretty. but that's what it is like and how it was.
