Re: Books Written by Gang Members

"Cat in the Hat", "Adventures in Wonderland," "scooby dooby doo"
go to Barns and Noble if you have one in youre area you'll find plenty of books written by gangsters. they are located in the "Crime" section though. most of them were written like in the mid 80's though, its hard to find modern gang books written by former gang members. they just dont publish SHi* like that no more. anyways.

Re: Books Written by Gang Members
Thanks,i was already thinking about ordering Always Running,but Amazon.com didn't have a customer review about it,so i hesitated but now i will.I live in the Netherlands so we don't have Barnes & Nobles,all the books i order must be imported from the US.

Re: Books Written by Gang Members
Check this book out:
Killing Rage - by Eamon Collins
This is a book by an former IRA terrorist. How can I put it: deadly, emotional, fanatical, crazy, suicidal and absolutely shocking.
One guy on this forum said that the only solution is total destruction. Thats wrong: ]
