Summary
Marks began to deal small amounts of hashish while doing a postgraduate philosophy course at Oxford, and soon he was moving much larger quantities into Europe and into America. The academic life began to lose its allure. At the height of his career, he was smuggling consignments of up to 50 tons from Pakistan and Thailand to America and Canada and had contact with organisations as diverse as MI6, the CIA, the IRA, and the Mafia. Numerous newspaper profiles, books, and television documentaries have been devoted to Howard Mark's life. Touched with humour, charm, and candour, Mr Nice is his own extraordinary story.

Very interesting but...
Mark is brilliant and you could listen to his voice all day. His life was obviously very interesting but this book seems to never get into the bits you want to hear and dwells a but too much on some other, not so interesting parts.

Excellent listening
I had read the book years ago, and enjoyed it.
I believe it has been abridged somewhat, some the details I remember are not in the audio.
As a stand alone listen, it is superb, and read by the man himself, a very pleasant voice, and a born narrator (A new career move maybe:)
A must hear I believe.
