He describes in revelatory detail the dreaded narco gangs; the smuggling of people, weapons, and illegal drugs; and the interrelated economies of drugs and the ruthless, systematic murder of young women in Ciudad Juarez. \u003ci\u003eAmexica\u003c\/i\u003e takes us far beyond today's headlines. It is a street-level portrait, by turns horrific and sublime, of a place and people in a time of war as much as of the war itself, an impressively rendered, nightmare-inducing account (\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e, Top 25 Books of 2010).\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eED VULLIAMY\u003c\/b\u003e was the New York correspondent for \u003ci\u003eThe Observer \u003c\/i\u003efrom 1997 to 2003 and spent many years as an international correspondent for \u003ci\u003eThe Guardian\u003c\/i\u003e.
