Book: Gang Town, Don Pinnock

For me, this book was a bit like swimming in syrup. Not exactly light Christmas reading. In 'The President's Keepers' reference was made to gang  involvement, which was incredibly interesting. I was keen to learn more about the gangs. I suppose I was expecting a slightly different read. This book does give good and fairly detailed information about the gangs in Cape Town; I think I was hoping to read about more specific examples and insights.

The last two/three chapters about drugs and also what needs to be done was the most interesting.
