Roger Reave's grew up a poor farm boy in Georgia and went from making 'Moon Shine' to becoming one of the most prolific smugglers of the 20th century. He covered six continents, transporting twenty ton ship loads of hash, tons of cocaine, and completed more than one hundred sorties across the U.S border with plane loads of marijuana. His friends and associates spanned the globe. From Medellin Cartel kingpins Jorge Ochoa and Pablo Escobar; to "Mr Nice" Howard Marks, and the infamous Barry Seal who was Rogers close friend and employee. He escaped from prison on five seperate occasions; was shot down in both Mexico and Colombia, and tortured almost to death in a Mexican prison. Yet, there is a sparkle in his eye and a smile on his face as he tells of these adventures.And you've probably never heard of him...Till now...
Based on the author’s three-year-long investigation, this account exposes the story of lifelong CIA agent Barry Seal, the most successful drug smuggler in American history, who died in a hail of bullets with George Bush’s private phone number in his wallet. Revealing Seal’s active role in many of the nation’s most notorious scandals--including the Bay of Pigs, the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, and the Iran-Contra Affair--and featuring primary documents previously unseen by the public, this unique history explores the Faustian bargains made by the U.S. government and the secret pasts of some of today’s politicians.
Sometime after Barry Seal, the smuggler and DEA informant, began hiding his planes in Mena, Arkansas, the line to separate politics from criminal investigations was crossed. Investigators watching Seal knew that unexplained cash was flooding Arkansas. They knew that Seal had cleared a private airstrip in the mountains north of Mena. What they couldn’t understand was why their reports were kept as concealed as Seal’s planes. ALL QUIET AT MENA is their story—and the story of others who fought unsuccessfully to uncover the truth. In writing their stories, it also unexpectedly became partly my own.
