Incredible story of leadership a must read for everyone interested in the real 1% not the pretendersJanuary 3, 2009 This was a phenomenal book, finally written by a member and leader of a 1%club that didn't embellish,snitch or try to cover up his plans for the future. Cavazos presented such a rare look inside that the feds had to come down on the club and have outlawed their patch. Not even the Hells Angels has had to endure such persecution and discrimination. MFFM ride on!
American Motorcycle ClubsDecember 15, 2008 As a proud member of an American Nation Motorcycle Club there are a lot of rules you must go by but I am an American first and Motorcycle Clubs MC with foreign ancient names and philosophy (and there are many of them out there) turn most Americans off. When we all live in the greatest and strongest Country on Earth and Doc in his Book does not address this or any American History about the True American Outlaw Motorcycle Clubs in our Country. Maybe some day I will write a book and explain the difference between Street Gangs and Motorcycle Clubs yes there is a big difference. The Wolfman
Nicely writtenDecember 10, 2008 Read this book while deployed. I found it easy to read and truthful. It does seem that Doc has a bit of an ego.

This book is very easy to read. I read in two nights. Doc provides some information on the club but not much. I was hoping to find out what all the various patch meanings on the front of their cuts were, but the book doesnt say.
A surprising read.October 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Unlike Sonny Barger and Billy Queen, Ruben Cavazos' writing style is very choppy and clumsy. It was at times, hard to understand. Almost all of the events are described without dates, so I was unable to envision a timeframe of his experiences. Throughout the book, Cavazos comes off as a serious prima donna.
Important points in the history of the club, such as the war against their rivals, or the conflicts with a prison gang are glossed over and minimized.
Whereas Barger's books all portray his club almost like the Salvation Army with a couple quirks, Cavazos described his club as dysfunctional and its members as "idiots." This, I was not expecting. I think the History Channel's "Gangland" TV series which covered the Mongols gives a better understanding of the organization.
