Came really well packed. The quality is like an encyclopedia book, it looks expensive. Worth the 70 dollars.

The Record,
Not the Myth.
Ten dossiers on the men and the woman who built the most powerful criminal enterprises of the twentieth century, from Medellín to Sinaloa, and on what it cost them.
Everything here comes from the record. The photographs are real images of real people and events, drawn from press archives, court files and law-enforcement documents, some once held confidential. The exhibits are faithful reconstructions of those papers. The maps were drawn for this book. Every file lists its sources.

What the Pages Hold.
The prison Escobar built for himself. An island in the Bahamas that became one man’s private airstrip. Cali’s ledger, rebuilt line by line. A cargo manifest from a fleet of 727s. The shower in a cell at Altiplano, and the tunnel behind it.
