Book Synopsis The Irish Smuggler by : Brian B. Kelly
Download or read book The Irish Smuggler written by Brian B. Kelly and published by ibooks. This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Irish Smuggler is a rare find. Both a literary oeuvre and a gripping page turner. Highly readable in either context.” —Alexander Campion, author of the Capucine Culinary Mysteries “The Irish Smuggler is a multi-layered yarn of intrigue and adventure on a global scale. Stories that emerge from ‘The Troubles,’ tend to be rich in passion and adrenalin. Brian Kelly has invested The Irish Smuggler with a rich count of both.” —Stewart Meyer, author of The Lotus Crew and soon to be published, The Heist Broker “The Irish Smuggler is a great yarn! Well-written, well-researched, highly cinematic—and highly recommended.” —Rory O’Connor, author of Friends, Followers and the Future “Any Harvard graduate can write a book but only Brian Kelly could have written this thrilling adventure, The Irish Smuggler. It cries out for the big screen or a mini-series for the smaller screens around the world.” —Sergei V. Skvortsov, President of Phoenix Films, the leading prime-time television producer in Russia The Irish Smuggler is an adventure story which pits Padraic Egan and three other IRA volunteers, friends from childhood, against all comers as they smuggle arms into Ireland and global cannabis crops into the United States. Taking on the British Army, Afghan mujahidin, a seafaring hippy commune, Russian and Chechen gangsters, Soviet police and the American DEA, not to mention mother nature, their adventures are twisted and changed as continual opposition and obstruction force them to adapt. The reader will meet Afghan mujahidin as they fight a Soviet Army of monumentally superior force. Spanning a stretch of time from 1975 in Ireland to 1991 in New York, much of the story takes place in the heart of 1990 Afghanistan and across the USSR in its final weeks and days in 1991.

Book Synopsis Fuel laundering and smuggling in Northern Ireland by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Northern Ireland Affairs Committee
Download or read book Fuel laundering and smuggling in Northern Ireland written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Northern Ireland Affairs Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-03-27 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee recognises the commitment and effort of individual HMRC officers in the fight against fuel crime in Northern Ireland, but says that as HMRC was allocated an additional £917 million in 2010-11 to bear down on tax avoidance and evasion across the UK, it should make a more concerted effort to eradicate the problem in Northern Ireland, where it is most prevalent. There is particular disappointment in the lack of progress on developing new "markers": chemicals added to fuel to mark it out as rebated, which are removed to enable it to be fraudulently sold at higher prices. Northern Ireland is estimated to have lost £70 million in 2009-10. Only five years ago this figure was as high as £250 million but fuel fraud remains a particularly serious problem for Northern Ireland. While 4% of diesel sold in GB is thought to be illicit, in Northern Ireland the comparable figure is estimated to be 12%. District councils in Northern Ireland foot the bill for cleaning up the harmful wastes left by laundering - about £330,000 in the last five years. The problem is also particularly acute in Northern Ireland because of links between organised criminal gangs and paramilitaries. The Committee is concerned at the apparent limited success of assets recovery as a deterrent. This lack of deterrence is exacerbated by the poor record for imposing custodial sentences in Northern Ireland. Between 2001 and 2009, only four people received custodial sentences for fuel fraud in Northern Ireland

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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"--

Book Synopsis Smugglers' Woods by : Arthur Dudley Pierce
Download or read book Smugglers' Woods written by Arthur Dudley Pierce and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1960 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Pierce tells the vivid story of smugglers turned privateers after the Revolutionary War broke out. He recounts from many sources tales of ships and men who fought and, although outnumbered and outgunned, still played havoc with British shipping. He tells also of the profiteering that went hand in hand with the privateering of the war years. From the Mullica River to Cape May stretched the woodlands and the inlets that harbored smugglers. Stealthy and dangerous though their activities were, the smugglers were not outcasts. They were looked upon with indulgence by many respectable citizens of the day. As bitterness toward the mother country mounted, smugglers were encouraged and actively supported in their operation agains the Crown. The Jersey inns and taverns emerged as the "cradles of revolt" in the years immediately preceding the Revolution. In them were planned and fostered many intrigues and acts of violence that played important parts behind the scenes of military and official action. A number of these inns and taverns are still in active use today and are depicted in the illustrations. Smugglers' Woods deals with smugglers, privateers, patriots, and loyalists to give an exciting account of the tensions and conflicts that gripped pre-Revolutionary and Revolutionary New Jersey.
Book Synopsis China’s War on Smuggling by : Philip Thai
Download or read book China’s War on Smuggling written by Philip Thai and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smuggling along the Chinese coast has been a thorn in the side of many regimes. From opium and weapons concealed aboard foreign steamships in the Qing dynasty to nylon stockings and wristwatches trafficked in the People’s Republic, contests between state and smuggler have exerted a surprising but crucial influence on the political economy of modern China. Seeking to consolidate domestic authority and confront foreign challenges, states introduced tighter regulations, higher taxes, and harsher enforcement. These interventions sparked widespread defiance, triggering further coercive measures. Smuggling simultaneously threatened the state’s power while inviting repression that strengthened its authority. Philip Thai chronicles the vicissitudes of smuggling in modern China—its practice, suppression, and significance—to demonstrate the intimate link between illicit coastal trade and the amplification of state power. China’s War on Smuggling shows that the fight against smuggling was not a simple law enforcement problem but rather an impetus to centralize authority and expand economic controls. The smuggling epidemic gave Chinese states pretext to define legal and illegal behavior, and the resulting constraints on consumption and movement remade everyday life for individuals, merchants, and communities. Drawing from varied sources such as legal cases, customs records, and popular press reports and including diverse perspectives from political leaders, frontline enforcers, organized traffickers, and petty runners, Thai uncovers how different regimes policed maritime trade and the unintended consequences their campaigns unleashed. China’s War on Smuggling traces how defiance and repression redefined state power, offering new insights into modern Chinese social, legal, and economic history.
