Ice Blues

Someone's left a man's body in Donald Strachey's car -- the grandson of Albany's most connected political fixer. A letter from the deceased asks Strachey to dismantle his grandfather's party machine. Like a chess master, Strachey moves ten suitcases, an army of colorful pawns (all of whom think they're king), and $2.5 million across the continent and around Albany. One of the funniest in the series. (Filmed for release by HereTV in 2008; originally published 1986.)

Weed: Adventures of a Dope Smuggler

Jerry Kamstra has been smuggling marijuana from Mexico into the United States since the early 1960s. In 1966, which smuggling 200 kilos of mota (the choicest part of the marijuana plant) into Arizona from Michoaca, he was arrested by U.S. Customs. He was sentenced to two years in the federal penitentiary. His sentence was suspended and he was placed on five years' probation. Sometime thereafter, while Kamstra was living in San Francisco, he was approached by Life magazine to take one of their photographers, Eugene Anthony, into the heart of Mexico to do what no gringo had ever accomplished--to go up into the mountains where marijuana fields flourish and to photograph them and the campesinos ...

Young Outsiders

‘The Road of Excess leads to the Palace of Wisdom’: Blake’s line had become a slogan for the hippie generation. The dramatic differences between the hippies’ way of life and that of most of the rest of society at the time made them a puzzling and alarming phenomenon. Originally published in 1973, Richard Mills describes and interprets these differences in Young Outsiders. Based on research in the Ladbroke Grove and Piccadilly areas of London, the study explores critical issues which preoccupied young people everywhere and separated them from their parents’ generation. Told largely in the words of the young people themselves, the book describes their everyday life and the ways they ...

Why do the vast majority of heroin users live in cities? In his provocative history of heroin in the United States, Eric C. Schneider explains what is distinctively urban about this undisputed king of underworld drugs. During the twentieth century, New York City was the nation's heroin capital—over half of all known addicts lived there, and underworld bosses like Vito Genovese, Nicky Barnes, and Frank Lucas used their international networks to import and distribute the drug to cities throughout the country, generating vast sums of capital in return. Schneider uncovers how New York, as the principal distribution hub, organized the global trade in heroin and sustained the subcultures that su...
