A great writer I’ve long admired–easily one of the best when it comes to the Southwest United States and across the border into northern Mexico–has a striking new piece at Mother Jones ..We Bring Fear A reporter flees the biggest cartel of all–the Mexican army.
The article is written with the immediacy, the detail and the insight Bowden’has consistently delivered over the past twenty years.
It’s the outstanding feature in an issue devoted to the War on Drugs, some of which has been previously reported here and at July Dogs over the past several months.
