Motorbooks International, 1987. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Book shows very light wear to cover corners only. Binding is solid and square, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Totally cool book about DEA agents and how tough and cool they are, using really bad-ass boats and helicopters n' shit to hunt down rich hippies on sailboats and Mexican smugglers bringing in pot to America's children and coke to its gay discos. Lots of full page and half page color photos of the dudes flying like, Lear jets and black helicopters with marijuana leaf insignias on the side showing how many criminals they've taken down. Dude, it's righteous, and all it cost was a generation of blacks and underclass youth locked up in prisons across this great land of ours to get the job done! A nice memento of pointless militarism, violence and repression inflicted on our culture, hyped all the while by the 1% that owns mainstream media.
