Reviews
"Hurowitz did what a few American journalists or writers do: he went to Mexico to capture the background of the events that describe and explain the failure of the American war on drugs and the rise of criminals like Chapo Guzmán. El Chapo is a great book, easy to digest for readers and a fabulous explanation with a healthy narrative of the cruel reality on both sides of the Río Bravo about narcotrafficking, corruption and political blindness." --J. Jesús Esquivel, Washington DC correspondent for Proceso magazine and author of El Juicio: Crónica de la caída del Chapo, "[A] much-needed revisit of the Chapo story...fast-paced, at times edgy...Hurowitz manages to capture the history of the drug war in Mexico well." -- Small Wars Journal, "This remarkably engaging...Truly the definitive account of the life of Joaquín Guzmán, El Chapo. Yet it is about so much more than just the world's most infamous drug trafficker. Through the story of El Chapo, Hurowitz reveals in compelling fashion the calculated and violent absurdity that is the so-called War on Drugs--a war that has proven more effective in killing, terrorizing, and repressing poor people across the globe than stopping the flow of illicit drugs. This impressively researched book is essential reading." --Alexander Aviña, author of Specters of Revolution: Peasant Guerrillas in the Cold War Mexican Countryside, "Hurowitz fleshes out the harrowing details of Mexico's drug violence and high-level corruption, and draws on interviews with former cartel insiders to document El Chapo's staggering ambitions and deep-seated paranoia.... [The author's] access to players on both sides of the drug war impresses." -- Publishers Weekly

Synopsis
A stunning investigation of the life and legend of Mexican kingpin Joaquín Archivaldo "El Chapo" Guzmán Loera, building on Noah Hurowitz's revelatory coverage for Rolling Stone of El Chapo's federal drug-trafficking trial. This is the true story of how El Chapo built the world's wealthiest and most powerful drug-trafficking operation, based on months' worth of trial testimony and dozens of interviews with cartel gunmen, Mexican journalists and political figures, Chapo's family members, and the DEA agents who brought him down. Over the course of three decades, El Chapo was responsible for smuggling hundreds of tons of cocaine, marijuana, heroin, meth, and fentanyl around the world, becoming in the process the most celebrated and reviled drug lord since Pablo Escobar. El Chapo waged ruthless wars against his rivals and former allies, plunging vast areas of Mexico into unprecedented levels of violence, even as many in his home state of Sinaloa continued to view him as a hero. This unputdownable book, written by a great new talent, brings El Chapo's exploits into a focus that previous profiles have failed to capture. Hurowitz digs in deep beyond the legends and delves into El Chapo's life and legacy--not just the hunt for him, revealing some of the most dramatic and often horrifying moments of his notorious career, including the infamous prison escapes, brutal murders, multi-million-dollar government payoffs, and the paranoia and narcissism that led to his downfall. From the evolution of organized crime in Mexico to the militarization of the drug war to the devastation wrought on both sides of the border by the introduction of synthetic opioids like fentanyl, this book is a gripping and comprehensive work of investigative, on-the-ground reporting., A stunning investigation of the life and legend of Mexican kingpin Joaqu n Archivaldo "El Chapo" Guzm n Loera, building on Noah Hurowitz's revelatory coverage for Rolling Stone of El Chapo's federal drug-trafficking trial.

"I have a question for you," he said. "Why do gringo journalists always want to come here to Sinaloa to ask about drugs?" You'd think I would have had a ready answer for this. It was my second trip to Culiacán, and I'd been working on the same story now for more than six months. But what he said gave me pause. Why did U.S. journalists come here? Why was I here? Good Question. From the outset, I intended to use the myth of El Chapo to tell a larger story; that of the drug trade in Mexico, how its interactions and entanglements with the state went far beyond the common assumption of the cops-and-robbers dynamic, the brave cops and heroic soldiers and federal agents pursuing the dastardly, death-loving drug traffickers. I hope this book serves as some sort of answer to Beto's question. But is's not just Beto who deserves an answer. My greatest hope is that I may add a bit of clarity to a complex story. Not just the story of El Chapo, but of Sinaloa, Ciudad Juárez, and of Mexico: the story of the chaotic, futile, and bloody mess of the so-called war on drugs. This is a story I am able to tell only because of the unfathomably brave work of a small army of honest journalists in Mexico, many of whom faced grave danger and vile threats-and too many of whom paid with their lives-simply for committing the crime of telling the truth. I will be grateful to them as long as I live. Book jacket.
