Book excerpt: The Mexican drug lord of the Sinaloa Cartel, El Chapo Guzman, was ranked as one of the 100 most powerful people in the world for three years continuously by Forbes magazine. In 2009 he was 41st, in 2010 he was ranked 60th, and again in 2011 he was at the 55th position. In this book, we will take a look at this Mexican drug kingpin, his early life, how he entered the business of drug trafficking, how he expanded his business, and how he increased his control over the Mexican drug cartels. Of course, who can forget about his arrests and the many number of escapes he made from the authorities?
