Resumen del Editor
In the late 1970s and early '80s, a cadre of freewheeling Southern pot smugglers lived at the crossroads of Miami Vice and a Jimmy Buffett song. These irrepressible adventurers unloaded nearly a billion dollars worth of marijuana and hashish through the Eastern Seaboard's marshes. Then came their undoing: Operation Jackpot, one of the largest drug investigations ever and an opening volley in Ronald Reagan's "War on Drugs".
In Jackpot, author Jason Ryan takes us back to the heady days before drug smuggling was synonymous with deadly gunplay. During this golden age of marijuana trafficking, the country's most prominent kingpins were a group of wayward and fun-loving Southern gentlemen who forsook college educations to sail drug-laden luxury sailboats across the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, and the Caribbean. Les Riley, Barry Foy, and their comrades eschewed violence as much as they loved pleasure, and it was greed, lust, and disaster at sea that ultimately caught up with them, along with the law.
In a cat-and-mouse game played out in exotic locations across the globe, the smugglers sailed through hurricanes, broke out of jail, and survived encounters with armed militants in Colombia, Grenada, and Lebanon. Based on years of research and interviews with imprisoned and recently released smugglers and the law enforcement agents who tracked them down, Jackpot is sure to become a classic story from America's controversial drug wars.

This is the story of the most successful cocaine dealers in the world: Pablo Escobar Gaviria, Jorge Luis Ochoa Vasquez, Carlos Lehder Rivas, and Jose Gonzalo Rodriguez Gacha. In the 1980s, they controlled more than 50 percent of the cocaine flowing into the United States. The cocaine trade is capitalism on overdrive - supply meeting demand on exponential levels. Here you'll find the story of how the modern cocaine business started and how it turned a ragtag group of hippies and sociopaths into regal kings.

In the three decades since April 4, 1968, when Martin Luther King, Jr., was shot to death in Memphis, scores of books and articles have questioned whether James Earl Ray, King's killer, acted alone or was part of a larger conspiracy. Now, based on explosive new interviews, confidential files, and previously undisclosed evidence, best-selling author Gerald Posner finally resolves the simple truth of the last great political murder mystery of the 1960s, definitively proving that Ray acted alone.

Joe Barboza knew that there were two requirements for getting inducted into the Mafia. You had to be Sicilian. And you had to commit a contract killing. The New Bedford-born mobster was a proud Portuguese, not Sicilian, but his dream to be part of La Cosa Nostra proved so strong that he thought he could create a loophole. Barboza’s legacy, buried for years thanks to the murders or deaths of its participants, is finally coming to light and being told in its unvarnished brutality by one of America’s most respected true crime writers.

They socialized with music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, did business with New York's king of bling Jacob "The Jeweler" Arabo, and built allegiances with rap superstars Young Jeezy and Fabolous. Yet even as BMF was attracting celebrity attention, its crew members struck fear in a city.

As a cop, Ron Previte was corrupt. As a mobster, he was brutal. And in his final role, as a confidential informant to the FBI, Previte was deadly. The Last Gangster is his story—the story of the last days of the Philadelphia Mob, and of the clash of generations that brought it down once and for all. Convinced that the honor of the "business" was gone, he became the FBI's secret weapon in an intense and highly personalized war on the Philadelphia mob, operating with the same guile, wit, and stone-cold bravado that had made him a force in the underworld.

Historia
By the mid 1980s, the criminal underworld in the United States had become an ethnic polyglot; one of the most powerful illicit organizations was none other than the Cuban mob. Known on both sides of the law as "the Corporation", the Cuban mob's power stemmed from a criminal culture embedded in south Florida's exile community - those who had been chased from the island by Castro's revolution and planned to overthrow the Marxist dictator and reclaim their nation.

Working with unprecedented access to government documents, a voluminous correspondence with Terry Nichols, and more than 150 interviews with those immediately involved, Gumbel and Charles demonstrate how much was missed in the official investigation.

But for two cops, all that mattered was nailing the strutting gangster Mickey Cohen. Sgt. Jack O’Mara was a square-jawed church usher, Sgt. Jerry Wooters a cynical maverick....

The Gentlemen Smugglers are back!!
I picked up this book after interviewing Barry Foy about his new, legal Gentlemen Smugglers cannabis brand in Massachusetts.
Foy is less Scarface and more Matthew McConaughey, and it's hard not to root for him.
The criminalization of drugs is one of the greatest mistakes of the 20th century.
This book provides an interesting piece to the puzzle around the so-called war on drugs.
If you're interested in cannabis, the cannabis industry, etc. definitely check this book out.

Thanks Shep Rose for this recommendation!!
I listened to Shep Rose’s Average Expectations and this title was recommended in his book. Since I recently moved to SC, I thought it would be interested to learn more about the area and local stories. I thought this book was great and very engaging. I can’t believe some of this stuff happened here. It also brings to light some of the “good ol’ boys” clubs that you see now in SC politics and crime (Alex Murdaugh). Highly recommend the Murdaugh Murders podcast on apple podcasts for true crime SC.

fun and exciting
if you enjoy stories about drug smuggling you will love this book. laid back mellow guys, fun wild exciting adventures, exotic locations and huge loads of pot and hashish. as well as the consequences of those adventures. every time i think i've found my favorite book and favorite story about smuggling i find another even better and this is just one more example of that. though this one is going to be extremly hard to beat. the huge loads of pot and hash and the stories of picking them up and getting them back here and unloading them are crazy and so much fun to hear. you won't be dissapointed.

I loved it
I found this intriguing and amazing to listen to, especially after the Murdagh trial. The Lowcountry is interesting. I’ve lived here a long time but not long enough to have know about this story. And McMasters is our governor!!!

If You Enjoy Injustice
I kept thinking the story would get better so I continued to listen. Eventually I had an hour left & the story just kept getting more depressing. It’s sad that these men ever went to jail over marijuana. I know the times were different but the American justice system is depressing. No real rehabilitation & people in prisoned over a plant that we now know has healing benefits. As a medical patient who has been able to function better in my daily life as a result of cannabis products, this book was just depressing & reminded me that america has a very long way to go before eliminating criminal charges for these harmless entrepreneurs.
