"The unlikeliest of kingpins, Richard Stratton, a clean-cut Wellesley boy who entered outlaw culture on a trip to Mexico, he saw his search for a joint morph into a thrill-filled dope run smuggling two kilos across the border in his car door. He became a member of the Hippie Mafia, traveling the world to keep America high, living the underground life while embracing the hippie credo, rejecting hard drugs in favor of marijuana and hashish. With cameos by Whitey Bulger and Norman Mailer, Smuggler's Blues tells Stratton's adventure while centering on his last years as he travels from New York to Lebanon's Bekaa Valley to source and smuggle high-grade hash in the midst of civil war, from the Caribbean to the backwoods of Maine, and from the Chelsea Hotel to the Plaza as his fortunes rise and fall, while he is being pursued by his nemesis, a philosophical DEA agent who respects him for his good business practices"--

Smugglersa Blues is not about big drug cartels that make the evening news. It is about freelance smugglers who operate in the shadows of the law and how they succeed but inevitably are caught by the corruption and deception inherent in the business. Motivated by the lure of big money, the twisted underworld of drug trafficking is faithfully exposed. Deception, intrigue, and violence create a trail of disaster from the first conspiracy to the last closing argument. Smugglersa Blues is a last-man-standing tale full of surprises, tears, and a few laughs. The action starts in an isolated province in Columbia and moves to Miami and Chicago. An aspiring drug smuggler develops a plot to fly 400 kilos of cocaine into Florida. He marshals an unsavory supporting cast and the action begins. From a daring airborne escape from a federal prison to a bad deal gone sour, the twists and turns of the plot keep the reader on edge.

The idea first surfaced while crossing the Gulf of Mexico. Four days and nights at sea, sighting only the odd freighter, popping up on the horizon, then sailing back into the sea - the sheer size and emptiness of the ocean spawned the plan. A plan to sail a load of pot from Jamaica to Florida. Years before some fraternity brothers in college made big bucks unloading large shipments of ganja, as much as ten grand a night. I never got in on those paydays….. I also never forgot.Glenn Frey called it “The lure of easy money.” In addition to the money it was a glamorous life, as depicted in cinema and song. Only the uneducated clung to the belief marijuana was dangerous. Pot was openly smoked at concerts and college campuses. Most began to accept Ganga, with the exception of the law makers and enforcers.The “War on Drugs”, cocaine and mandatory prison sentences brought an end to the innocence of smuggling. The professionals took over marked by guns and violence. The days of the “Hippie Mafia” came to an end.

Michael Mann first made his mark as a writer for such television programs as Starsky and Hutch, Police Story, and Vegas. In 1981 he made his feature film directing debut with the James Caan thriller Thief, and in the 1980s he served as a writer and executive producer for the groundbreaking programs Miami Vice and Crime Story. Though he has delved into other genres, Mann’s career as a writer, producer, and director has consistently focused on criminal activity, from small-time hoods and professional thieves to corporate manipulators and serial killers. In Michael Mann: Crime Auteur, Steven Rybin looks at the television programs and films that Mann has stamped with his personal signature. This book closely examines the themes and techniques used in films such as Manhunter, Heat, The Insider, and Collateral and connects these elements to his work on the non-genre films The Last of the Mohicans and Ali. A revised and significantly expanded edition of The Cinema of Michael Mann (2007), this book includes new chapters on Public Enemies and the big screen version of Miami Vice, as well as Mann’s work on the shows Crime Story and Luck. Covering Mann’s entire career, this book will be of interest to fans of the writer/director’s body of work as well as to scholars of both film and television.
