Review
"In a busy world with limited time I would recopmmend that jails confonted with gang problems would serve themselves well by purchasing this book. Knox and his staff have done a tremendous amount of work in collecting and analyzing material about the gang problem in America." Ken Kerle, p. 104, American Jails magazine, July/August, 2006. --American Jails magazine, 2006.
