Pirate Alley is now available in paperback. The
book provides an in-depth look at every aspect of Somali piracy,
from how the pirates operate to how the actions of a relative
handful of youthful criminals and their bosses have impacted the
world economy. It explores the debate over the recently adopted
practice of putting armed guards aboard merchant ships, and
focuses on the best management practices that are changing the
ways that ships are outfitted for travel through what's known as
the High-Risk Area. Readers will learn that the consequence of
protecting high quality targets such as container ships and crude
oil carriers may be that pirates turn to crime on land, such as
the kidnapping of foreigners.
