Mexico: Narco-Violence and a Failed State?

Savage narcotics-related decapitations, castrations, and other murders have destroyed the peace in many Mexican communities and such savagery is now cascading across the border into the United States. Grayson explores how this spiral of violence emerged in Mexico, its impact on the country and its northern neighbor, and the prospects for managing it. This explosive book is a study of drug cartels, and also state disintegration.
