Escobar Versus Cali

Escobar Versus Cali: The War of the Cartels is set in the 1980s while Colombia was the scene of history’s biggest gang war. The epic death struggle pitted Narco Pablo Escobar, the so called world’s greatest outlaw, against the powerful Cali Cartel, led by the brothers Gilberto and Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela. The war left thousands of Colombians dead and spawned the term, narco-terrorism. Who got Pablo Escobar and how did the war play out? Author Ron Chepesiuk takes the reader behind the scenes of the war to the death and investigates a gangland mystery.
