Customer Reviews

Amazing book, It’s the only Biography I’ve read numerous times.

Did you watch the Cocaine Cowboys documentary? Well this is way better. It’s a easy read, Filled with facts & the author was sure to write i. Small notes at the bottom , Of any discrepancies & fact check just about everything. It is one of my favorite books &I have bought it new twice ( bc of lending out etc) And I have re-read the book numerous times, As in once every year or 1.5 years!
