Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Printing. Signed and inscribed by Gary Webb upon half-title page. "Shows how the L.A. crack market flourished through a breathtaking combination of government negligence, greed, and criminal conduct. Demonstrates that U.S. government agencies, including the… CIA, DEA and FBI, were aware of the activities of this well-connected drug network and did little or nothing to stop it. Indeed, in several instances documented here, the Justice Department, the CIA, and the secret National Security Council unit run by Oliver North, took extraordinary steps to protect the ring from public exposure. In the final chapters Webb reveals the conflict that led to his newspaper's stunning repudiation of its own series - and at what cost he stood by his story." - dust jacket. xxviii, 548 pages. Footnotes, glossary and index. Webb was found dead in his home in 2004 with two gunshot wounds to his head. Curiously, his death was ruled a suicide. Clean and unmarked with light wear.

Fine with light shelfwear to boards and dust-soiling to upper edge of textblock. In a Near Fine dust jacket with sunned spine panel, hint of toning to flaps, and several very small stains along lower edge. Signed copies are rare. Journalist Gary Webb's still-controversial expose of CIA drug dealing and its relationship to the crack epidemic in the US fueled by crack dealers like "Freeway" Ricky Ross. In 2004 Webb would be found dead in his apartment, shot in the head twice, which police ruled a suicide. A 2014 film, Kill the Messenger, dramatized Webb's life, his claims, and the severe backlash he faced from the media. To his supporters Webb remains an inspirational journalist who persevered in the face of tremendous official corruption and coverup.
