{"product_id":"war-drums-james-lafond-9781514394755","title":"War Drums: Forty Miles from The Big House","description":"In the dying days of April 2015, in Baltimore Maryland, race riots erupted.As world media focused on the death of one petty criminal and the firestorm around a certain West Baltimore location, what else happened?According to the author, the riots were primarily a diversionary tactic by drug gangs to put police out of position, for purposes that can only be conjectured, and secondarily, to facilitate a race purge, that placed white residents of Baltimore City and Eastern Baltimore County under black mob rule for a full week, while every police resource was diverted to handle the mushrooming media circus.War Drums is a street level memoir of the working class people of a town often called Harm City, who were publicly and officially abandoned to the criminal underworld by their own municipal governments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James LaFond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1514394758\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781514394755\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/18\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 292\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.61d","brand":"James LaFond","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48623089582335,"sku":"9781514394755","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/war-drums-james-lafond-9781514394755","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
