One Dead Indian: The Premier, the Police, and the… par Peter Edwards
Uncertain about how much to trust governments and their agencies in Canada? Read this. Ignorant about the even-handedness of 'justice' in Canada? Read this. Doubt the patience and forbearance of First Nations peoples in Canada? Read this.
No shortage of detail on organized crime in Canada. The reader has to wade through disorganized presentation of facts and charactors.
Unrepentant is a biography of Lorne Campbell but also a behind the scenes look at motorcycle clubs in Canada. While I found the book to be an interesting read, it definitely feels like the author is too close to the subject and paints him a bit too cleanly. While Lorne caused mayhem throughout the book I cannot ever recall him inflicting damage on non-bikers or innocents, which while possible seems highly unlikely. Given Lorne's upbringing, I would understand more regretful behavior a bit and it would make the book seem less whitewashed.
That all being said, I do recommend it as a great behind the scenes look into a world very few will ever experience.
