The Lebanese Connection: Corruption, Civil War, and the International Drug Traffic

by Jonathan Marshall

The Lebanese Connection uncovers for the first time the story of how Lebanon became one of the world's leading suppliers of illicit drugs, how its economy and political system were corrupted by drug profits, and how the drug trade contributed to the country's greatest catastrophe, its fifteen-year civil war from 1975 to 1990.
