{"product_id":"outlaws-adam-shand-9781743311967","title":"Outlaws: The Truth about Australian Bikers","description":"\u003cb\u003eAn investigation into Australia's biker clubs--bastions of organized crime, or useful pawns in the political law and order game?\u003c\/b\u003e While the remaining bastions of brotherhood in Australian society are disintegrating--police are corrupt, armed forces are bastardized and demoralized--one group, the outlaw bikers, has bonded together and raised a greasy finger to the government and police. This is a book about how the same forces that have weakened social institutions are now at play inside these motorcycle clubs, as they are weakened and transformed, sometimes into vicious criminal enterprises, harboring some of the most dangerous criminals in Australia. Bikers say they are the last free men in society, an almost paramilitary force that operates on strong, inalienable codes of behavior and justice, but a struggle is underway inside the clubs between those who believe in the ideal of freedom and those who use the power of the club colors to their own criminal advantage. This is the story of how these clubs try to save their collective souls in the face of greed and self-interest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Shand\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1743311966\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781743311967\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Allen \u0026amp; Unwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.36h x 4.57w x 0.78d","brand":"Adam Shand","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49082910703871,"sku":"9781743311967","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/outlaws-adam-shand-9781743311967","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
