Customer Reviews

realistic and graphic5
This book is real, in your face, account of LA's street gangs. It is amazing that the author gained the trust of the people she interviewed. This book adds no "fluff" or drama. It is a real-life account what our young people face in the street everyday. This book is a MUST for those wanting to learn about gang members, their lives and our youth who are incarcarated. Whether you are a professional or student wiritng a paper, read this book.

true life representation4
This book has accurately protrayed what gang-life is like more so than any other book or movie that I have ever seen. It helps you have an understanding of how and why someone has chosen or been dealt this life, and shows you that there is so much more to the people Leon Bing has protrayed than just a color and a gun. I only wish she had done a follow-up to this book.

Gangs, detention centers and gangsters, just my kind of book5
This book was great and I would reccommend it to anyone who wants to learn about really happens in L.A. and how most all gangsters are born into the system and there is no way to get out. A very detailed and fact filled book. One of the best that I have ever read.
