Editorial Review: Product Description: In this book, Bill Valentine, author of Gang Intelligence Manual, shares the latest intelligence on the predominant street and prison gangs and other disruptive groups, with particular emphasis on their identifying tattoos. Supplementing the text are scores of detailed illustrations by Correctional Officer Robert Schober that replicate some of the most common tattoos worn by members of each of the groups discussed. This groundbreaking work makes a substantial amount of previously classified information available to the general public for the first time. In addition to presenting the latest intel on white, black, Hispanic and Asian gangs, it also includes new information on groups such as the White Afrikaner Resistance Movement and the Russian Mafia, which add to the mounting challenge faced by those laboring to hold the line against the menace posed by gangs, hate groups and organized crime. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Unusual And Thorough Book On A Very Specific Subject If you have any need for this kind of information, I highly recommend this book. Very few of us need to be able to identify gang members by their tattoos, but this is a valuable resource for those who are interested. Social workers, probation officers, and others who work with high-risk or at-risk populations should read this book and keep it with their personal collections. Rating: - "Just About Everything You Need to Know About Gangs & Tattoos""Gangs and Their Tattoos: Identifying Gangbangers on the Street and in Prison", by Bill Valentine & Robert Schober, Paladin Press, CO 2000.

Read More Rating: - InterestingIf you are interested and want to know what the tatoos mean. This is a good way to find out without having to ask the person who has them. :0) Rating:  - Limited coverageI may be off base as far as gang activity in other areas of the country but this book focuses so much on the tats of white supremists I didn't find it to be as useful as I had hoped. I am working with younger, homegrown local gang members on the east coast who are loosely affiliated with the Bloods. While this has a bit of info, there is much more out there that this author did not touch on. Rating: - ink behind the wallsthis book covers alot of the different prison gangs and gives not only thier history but tat's warn by thier members. It is very informitive and shows both drawings and photos of ink behind the walls.
