Format: Paperback
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

For half a lifetime, Lennox Rodgers operated in the criminal underworld in and around London and Oxford. In this searingly honest account, he gives a fascinating insider account of his experiences. Stomach-churning, heart-breaking, eye-opening - Lennox leaves no stone unturned. In riveting detail, he recounts how he was drawn into his life of crime, how he operated as a drug dealer, enforcer and armed robber, and how he survived numerous spells in prisons including Dartmoor, Strangeways, Grendon, Oxford and Lewes. All culminating in the fateful day when, friendless, bloodied and broke, he collapsed behind an industrial bin in an alleyway off London's Oxford Street, and saw an eerie image out of the corner of his eye. About Lennox Lennox is regularly invited to comment on the issues of gang culture, knife crime, prison reform and youth rehabilitation by the LBC, BBC, ITN and Sky News. But this is the first time he's set out the complete story of his descent into darkness, and the intervention that brought about his commitment to Breaking Better.
