Drug Lord Fast Lives:
Women Who Use Crack Cocaine
A look at the lives of women who use crack cocaine. The book gives the reader a glimpse of what life is like for the women who choose to take crack.
It is not a pretty story, but it is interesting and fairly accurate. If you want an idea of what life is like for a woman who uses, this is a great introduction.
Fast Lives House That Crack Built
This book focuses on crack cocaine from the South American drug cartel to the streets of the U.S. It is not a good reference book. Some readers will probably enjoy this as a comedy, some of it is so bad it's funny.
It might offend some readers because of the stereotypes. Poor, down and out people who live in ghettos are not the only people who use crack, but that is the only group this book looks at.
House That Crack Built Illegal Drugs:
Economy, and Society in the Andes
The history, structure, and evolution of drug industries in the Andes and their economic, political, and social effects in Peru, Colombia, and Bolivia.

A Brief Career in the Cocaine Trade
A fact based account of one persons exploits in the cocaine industry. Told in a humorous manner, it follows a cocaine smuggler and focuses on his smart and simple operation from Columbia to New York City.
Snowblind The Andean Cocaine Industry
A well balanced account of the cocaine industry in South America. Very well researched, it follows cocaine from its cultivation in South America to its sale and use in the USA.
The authors analyze the economic and political impact of the drug business on the Andean nations in an accurate account of the business side of the drug.
This is not a good book for the reader interested in the history and effects of the drug. It is for the person interested in the business side of the cocaine industry.
The Andean Cocaine Industry The Cocaine Chronicles
A collection of 17 cocaine stories the authors made up. People that have decided all illegal drugs are bad (but have never tried any) will probably like this.
Anyone with a serious interest in the drug, or people looking for reliable facts should find another book.
