The encyclopedia of Canadian organized crime : from Captain Kidd to Mom Boucher / Peter Edwards and Michel Auger. by Edwards, Peter, 1956- McClelland & Stewart, 2012. Call #: 364.1060971 E26e 2012 Subjects Organized crime -- Canada -- Encyclopedias. ISBN:  9780771030499 (pbk.) Edition:  Rev. ed. Description:  290 p. : ill., ports. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references. Summary:  You may never again think of Canadians as law-abiding. Respected crime reporters Peter Edwards and Michel Auger have pooled their research and expertise to create "The Encyclopedia of Canadian Organized Crime." Sometimes grim, sometimes amusing, and always entertaining, this book is filled with 300 entries and more than 150 illustrations, covering centuries of organized crime. From pirates such as "Black Bart," who sheltered in isolated Newfoundland coves to strike at the shipping lanes between Europe and the North American colonies, all the way to the most recent influx of Russian mobsters, who arrived after the end of the Cold War in 1989 and are now honing their sophisticated technological skills on the Western public, Edwards and Auger enumerate the personalities and the crimes that have kept Canadian law enforcement busy.
