2.0 out of 5 stars Borrow, don't buy, June 6, 2004
By Jeffrey Delbosque (chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Very elementary, could have been written by anyone; including a priest. No "blow you away" secrets here. All common sense, with a couple of stupid tips to make sure you get arrested, such as approaching police in other countries and bribing them to find cocaine sources. Thought it would be an interesting read of an experienced trafficker, instead it was a short, "thrown together" book of common sense. Almost unreadable, don't buy it. All the 5 star reviews here are most definitely friends, or the author himself.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the real McCoy - the how to for smuggling, March 26, 2000
By testingagain "testingagain" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This book is exactly what it claims to be - an actual how to book for smuggling. I wouldn't be surprised if the DEA or FBI monitor those who actually buy this book. I bought it to help me with some insight for some fiction I want to write, and this smuggling book delivers (pun intended).

The book deals with attitude (an important consideration for this profession, I would imagine), fake ID, crossing borders, dealing with lots of money, dealing with the justice system, and more. For the flip side to this "how to" book, the actual narrative of "Inside the Cocaine Cartel" shares comparable information in the context of a fascinating story line. This book says a lot of what "Inside..." doesn't. This book is exactly what it claims to be, and it doesn't disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Well Written, Good Information, August 19, 2001
By Imperial Topaz (Marrakesh, Morocco) - See all my reviews
Gosh--if someone were truly thinking of entering the drug-smuggling profession, they should buy this book, as it gives very sound advice. Personally, I'm thinking of writing a novel, and including some drug-smuggling characters. This book gave me complete information for an excellent character profile. I was shocked at some of the information included, as I feel certain chapters should have been classified information (to protect against terroists). I really liked the style in which the book was written, as well--very direct, and easy to read. A REALLY EXCELLENT book.

As others have pointed out, this is a short book, and therefore it is more of an overview than a thorough "how-to". Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Drug smuggling: The Forbidden Book
I sent this book to my brother in jail. He really enjoyed it. He is in jail for that so I figured he would think the book was silly. He loved it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Definately worth the read
The first thing that struck me was how small the book was. I looked at its lack of size (152 pages) and thought I had wasted my money. How wrong I was. Read more
