Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A nave young man sets out to make enough money to fund his passions to travel the world and go surfing. He discovers that a job in the lucrative West Australian fishing industry provides him with more than enough to follow an Idyllic life with an endless supply of summer waves. When he comes up with an idea to make his boss a lot richer he soon realises he is in over his head. Unintentionally, he gets caught up in his own half-baked scheme and discovers just how dangerous his employers are. Fighting his way out of his situation results in shipwreck murder and love. Praise for Charles Anchors writing I was impressed by Charles Anchors storytelling style, he did a great job of creating chemistry between Jerry and Aster. I think Charles has a really great story here. Nick at Professional Editing Services.com Charles Anchors novel is a story incredibly alive and full of energy and humour. Jerry Shipley is a picaresque adventurer with the soul of a philosopher. His profound faith in the benevolence of the universe runs through the madness of the narrative like a shining thread and make the book a kind of eccentric and irreverent homage to the Age of Aquarius.

Download or read book Smuggling written by Alan L. Karras and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2010 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lively book, Alan L. Karras traces the history of smuggling around the world and explores all aspects of this pervasive and enduring crime. Through a compelling set of cases drawn from a rich array of historical and contemporary sources, Karras shows how smuggling of every conceivable good has flourished in every place, at every time. Significantly, Karras draws a clear distinction between smugglers and their more popular criminal cousins, pirates, who operated in the open with a type of violence that was nearly always shunned by smugglers. Explaining the divergence between the two groups, the book illustrates both crossovers and differences. At the same time, states and empires tolerated smuggling since eliminating smuggling was a sure route to a disgruntled and disorderly citizenry, and governments required order to remain in power. As a result, smuggling allowed individuals to negotiate an unstated social contract that minimized the role of government in their lives. Thus, Karras provocatively argues that smuggling was, and is, tightly woven into an uneasy relationship among governments, taxation, citizenship, and corruption. Bringing smugglers and smuggling to life, this book provides a fascinating exploration for all readers interested in crime and corruption throughout modern history.

Book Synopsis The Life of a Smuggler by : Helen Hollick
Download or read book The Life of a Smuggler written by Helen Hollick and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perfect for maritime historians and fans of Poldark, a look at the true history behind the legends built around smugglers. “Brandy for the parson, baccy for the clerk . . .” We have an image, mostly from movies and novels, of a tall ship riding gently at anchor in a moonlit, secluded bay with the “Gentleman” cheerfully hauling kegs of brandy and tobacco ashore, then disappearing silently into the night shadows to hide their contraband from the excise men in a dark cave or a secret cellar. But how much of the popular idea is fact and how much is fiction? Smuggling was big business—it still is—but who were these derring-do rebels of the past who went against paying taxes on the importation of luxury goods? Who purchased the illicit contraband? How did smugglers operate? Where were the most notorious locations? Was it profitable, or just an inevitable path to arrest and the hangman’s noose? Author Helen Hollick attempts to answer these queries and more.

Book excerpt: winged obsession The Pursuit of the World's Most Notorious Butterfly Smuggler One of the world's most beautiful endangered species, butterflies are as lucrative as gorillas, pandas, and rhinos on the black market. And in this cutthroat $200 million business, no one made more money than—or posed as great an ecological danger as—Yoshi Kojima, the kingpin of butterfly smugglers. Determined to capture Kojima, rookie U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agent Ed Newcomer became close to the smuggler, posing as a young apprentice eager to learn the smuggling trade. But twice the agent's inexperience allowed this criminal, with a nearly supernatural sense of survival and an overwhelming sense of paranoia, to get away. Just when it seemed Kojima was out of reach, Newcomer was given one last chance to reel him in. Somewhere in the hunt, Kojima had become obsessed with the agent. This obsession, along with his continued mania for butterflies, could finally spell the downfall of the untouchable smuggler. But the story doesn't end there. Working under-cover to research this book, Jessica Speart befriended Kojima as well. Like Newcomer, she was going to betray Kojima. What she didn't know was that this cagey smuggler was planning to turn the tables and use her as a patsy for continuing his illegal butterfly trade.

Book Synopsis Smugglers of the West by : Rosemary Neering
Download or read book Smugglers of the West written by Rosemary Neering and published by Heritage House Publishing Co. This book was released on 2011 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you think the smuggling of drugs and people is a new phenomenon in Canada's west? Think again! Between the mid-19th and mid-20th centuries, many daring smugglers carried contraband goods and people into western Canada across the US-Canada border or into BC from Asia. Smugglers of the West tells the dramatic tales of the bold criminals who smuggled Chinese immigrants, opium, liquor and a host of commodities ranging from wool to live animals to tobacco. Among them are Boss Harris, the shadowy kingpin whose opium-smuggling empire stretched from Victoria across North America, and King of the Smugglers Larry Kelly, who reputedly tied illegal Chinese immigrants to pig iron so they could be tossed overboard if American patrollers got too close. Rosemary Neering takes readers into a shadowy world where no item was too small and no risk too large for the men and women who carried goods and people clandestinely across the border.
