In GANGLAND, James Morton concentrated on the powers and personalities behind London's criminal fraternity. In GANGLAND Volume 2, he has turned his attention to the country as a whole, assessing the role of the great criminal families, gangs and organisations of Britain and Ireland's major cities. From Glasgow's hard men to the drugs markets of Manchester's Moss Side, GANGLAND VOLUME 2 exposes the people and places behind the profession of violence, and confirms James Morton's status as one of the country's leading crime experts.
