Gunsmoke by Joseph A West

Gunsmoke by Joseph A West

The world of business is rife with dark and clandestine schemes meant to ensure that deals proceed more quickly--and more advantageously to the palm-greaser--than they otherwise would. Business Bribes: Corporate Corruption and the Courts details two dozen of the most important and interesting U.S. judicial opinions dealing with commercial bribery, both domestic and foreign. The industries involved include agriculture, women's handbags, and Indian casinos, and the deals take place from Alaska to Florida and, around the globe, from Venezuela to Hungary and Azerbaijan. The bribes in these cases, numerous and generous, take the form of cash, stock, shares of future profits, vouchers, stock options, wire transfers, luxury vacations, and a wide range of other financial incentives.

Ralph Compton stood six-foot-eight without his boots. He worked as a musician, a radio announcer, a songwriter, and a newspaper columnist. His first novel, The Goodnight Trail, was a finalist for the Western Writers of America Medicine Pipe Bearer Award for best debut novel. He was also the author of the Sundown Rider series and the Border Empire series.

As a little boy growing up in a small fishing village in Scotland, Joseph West enjoyed many happy Saturday mornings at the local cinema in the company of Roy and Gene and Hoppy. His lifelong ambition was to become a cowboy, but he was sidetracked by a career in law enforcement and journalism. He now resides with his wife and daughter in Palm Beach, Florida, where he enjoys horse riding, cowboy action shooting, and studying Western history.
