Hell's Angels

by Yves Lavigne

Hell's Taking Care of Business is the ground-breaking book that launched Yves Lavigne's investigative series into the Hell's Angels . This book traces the growth of the Hell's Angels organization from the early, rowdy "club" to the insidious, far-reaching superstructure that now exists. Today's Angels still value the grinning death's head, but they keep it for funerals, runs, initiations, and laying heavies. Angels, like the undercover policemen who tail them, prefer street clothes to blend with their surroudings. In a world of drugs, prostitution and pornography, the shadow the Angels' wings falls on all of us. Hell's Taking care of Business is a fascinating and startling read.

[David · Rating 1 out of 5]

On aime ou on déteste. Ne l'ai pas terminé. C'est bourré d'opinions personnelles de l'auteur qui utilise beaucoup trop de termes péjoratifs comme "racaille", "rapaces", etc. pour mon goût.

Je n'ai aucune sympathie pour les criminels mais je préfère un texte objectif qui me laisse me faire ma propre opinion.

Une plongée au coeur des Hells Angels et de leur mode de fonctionnement somme toute "particulier". Sans concession, le travail d'Yves Lavigne est très bien documenté.
