Mr Nice

“Mr. Nice” typically refers to Howard Marks, a Welsh former drug smuggler turned author and raconteur, whose life story has captured the imagination of many. Born in 1945, Marks rose to infamy in the 1970s and 1980s for his involvement in large-scale cannabis trafficking. Despite his criminal activities, Marks earned the moniker “Mr. Nice” due to his affable and charming personality. His ability to navigate through the criminal underworld while maintaining a charismatic and friendly demeanor set him apart from the stereotypical image of a drug lord. In 1996, Marks penned his autobiography, also titled “Mr. Nice,” which detailed his illicit exploits and unconventional life. The book became an international bestseller and further solidified his status as a folk hero of sorts, with many drawn to the audacity and wit with which he recounted his experiences. --- Product Features --- Weight: 0.3, Kg Written_By: Howard, Marks Publisher: Canongate, Books Book Type: Intellect Categories: Biography, &, Memoir Best For: Autobiography, of, Howard, Marks.
