Gangs, Drugs, Crime & Prison, An Uncensored Guide to the Language and Lifestyles of Criminals
By Robert Labhart Item No. #Z0694
Price: $19.99

Quantity:  


This latest addition to the extremely popular Howdunit series will save you hours of research time as you write your mystery, thriller, and crime fiction. You'll find details surrounding the seedy lifestyles of criminals, gangs, and inmates plus an extensive dictionary of terms and expressions, and related material that provides understanding and insight into the values, influences, attitudes, character, behaviors, and everyday life of the street and prison gang member. Contains an easy-to-use index, official forms, documents, and excerpts from corrections, law enforcement, and legal manuals all of which will make your story realistic and hard to put down.

About the Author: For more than thirty years, Robert Labhart spent years as an inmate in high-security federal and state prisons. He has since studied sociology, criminology, psychology, and substance abuse counseling and since the early 1990s, he has conducted college presentations and lectures about crime and gives intervention talks to at-risk teens. In addition to his writing, Robert currently operates sober-living houses in southern California.
