Customer Reviews
Very informative and enlightening!
The author of this book is a former Correctional Officer. He served as his prison's gang intelligence officer so he provides plenty of first-hand expertise. This book really goes into depth with respect to revealing the gang world. Methods of recruitment, training, and how gangs make their money in and out of prison are all covered. A very good read if you're really serious about learning and understanding the "gang life."
Indispensable book for Gang investigators/officers
If you deal with Gangs at all from the patrol to investigative fields, this is your book.
Gangs are infulencing every aspect of society including the military...that's why the Navy's NCIS used this book as a reference!
It is highly informative and will give you the necessary training to start you out in this field and keep you going. Of course gangs change signs, tactics and methods as they see fit so certain portions will obviously be out of date but that is inevidable.
This manual should be purchased and read by patrol officers up to senior supervisors. Like that saying goes, the more you know the more you grow (and stay alive to beat the bad guys).
gift book
This item was given as a gift to a friend, who specifically requested it, and expressed great satisfaction on receiving it. Pricing, delivery and product integrity were all satisfactory. My rating it a 4 out of a possible 5 reflects only the fact that I lack first hand experience with the purchased item, and can only reflect the limited information conveyed to me by its recipient.
