Story
In 2008 veteran journalist Evan Wright, acclaimed for his New York Times best-selling book Generation Kill and co-writer of the Emmy-winning HBO series it spawned, began a series of conversations with super-criminal Jon Roberts, star of the fabulously successful documentary Cocaine Cowboys. Those conversations would last three years, during which time Wright came to realize that Roberts was much more than the de-facto “transportation chief” of the Medellin Cartel during the 1980s, much more than a facilitator of a national drug epidemic.

Great job using first person narrative. Very vivid and told very blunt. Exciting and fun story with unbelievable parts. I would recommend this book to people who are just starting in the professional world to gain perspective on personal drive to gain success (not necessarily in the drug business).
