Description:
As a boy, Miguel ngel Tobar fled a small town in El Salvador torn apart by warring guerrillas and US-backed death squads. As a teen in Los Angeles, he fought discrimination and beatings by joining a gang, MS-13. By the time the US deported him to San Salvador, the Hollywood Kid joined a wave of US-bred gangsters, whose violence in concert with corrupt offiicals have in turn helped propel new waves of refugees.


The incomparable Salvadoran journalist oscar Martinez got to know the Hollywood Kid and met with him as he first turned on MS-13, killing gang members, and then in turn was assassinated by other gang members. In intensely vivid scenes, Mart inez and his anthropologist brother Juan tell the story of a violent life and death and of the geopolitical forces that propelled a country into becoming one of the most violent on earth.

Totally Unacceptable
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I purchased this at $129.81 for a new book this book appears to be used & it’s obviously damaged. This is not what I spend my money on. I need this book for class. This is unacceptable on so many levels.

Comprehensive book. Great study tool for students or nurses entering Maternal Child specialties.
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Excellent read. Using for review before taking on a new role in Maternal Child Nursing. Comprehensive. Great tables, images, and key concepts and skills check questions are included for each chapter. My book spine is wearing out but I've read more than 1/3 the book and been toting around in a bag and has had heavy use for at least a month.

It was ok
Format: Hardcover
There is what appears to be water damage to some of the pages. I barely used the book. Maybe twice the entire quarter. I hope they knew about this before hand.

After reading several bad reviews, I was worried about the quality my book would come in. However, the book is in great condition! It is a thick and heavy book.
