Reviews
This book is a hard-driving, factual account of the Dominican drug trade and the havoc it wreaked in New York City, particularly in Washington Heights and the Bronx, along with the frustrated efforts of law enforcement officials to deal with it., Jackall isn't afraid to draw conclusions and his story has an air of authenticity. This book makes a brutal and, for most readers, extremely foreign world seem discomfitingly close., Wild Cowboys has a great deal to tell about the formation and operation of emerging "criminal enterprises." Moreover, and perhaps more important, this book is a fly-on-the-wall look at how the "forces of order" think and go about eradicating the opposition...Mr. Jackall is at his best when he fleshes out how police detectives single-mindedly overcame dead-end leads, sidestepped or neutralized competing units within the ranks of the police bureaucracy and parlayed fragments of accurate information to solve several particularly vicious pieces of Wild Cowboy handiwork...Anyone interested in the techniques of criminal investigation could not find a more comprehensive and readable primer than this book.

Synopsis
Bullet-torn bodies in a South Bronx alley, a college boy shot in the head on the West Side Highway and a wild shootout in the streets of Washington Heights, home of New York's immigrant Dominican community and hub of the eastern seaboard's drug trade. All seemingly separate acts of violence. But investigators discover a pattern to the mayhem. In this bloody urban saga, Jackall recounts how street cops, detectives and prosecutors pieced together a puzzle-like story of narcotics trafficking, money laundering and murders, all centered on a gang of Dominican youths known as the Wild Cowboys. These boyhood friends ran a crack business and routinely shot rivals and shot or slashed witnesses to their crimes, eventually turning on one another.

- j***a (320)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaA brand new sealed OOP CD was purchased on 10-21, shipped on 10-24, and delivered by USPS Media Mail on 10-31. Item received was new as described and pictured in the listing and was professionally packaged for shipping. CD was placed between two pieces of cardboard, then over wrapped in a layer of bubblewrap, and finally sealed in a plastic envelope. The receipt of CD in great condition, the care in packing, seller's offer, and fast shipping and delivery made for a great purchasing experience.
