Colombian Drug Cartels. Snow in the Desert

Empires built on cocaine, and people who declared war on governments.

This book is a chronicle of the rise and fall of the largest Colombian drug cartels. Palaces, zoos, submarines, and thousands of corpses: a story of how ill-gotten wealth turned Medellín into the most dangerous capital in the world, and how ordinary farmers and politicians became pawns in someone else's game.

You will learn how drug dollars attempted to change the geopolitics of Latin America and why, even after the death of the "kings," cocaine continues to rule the world.
