Now, just released in its first English translation by Verso Books, the book is entitled Narcoland: The Mexican Drug Lords and Their Godfathers. In Narcoland, Hern\u00e1ndez names the names of the various drug lords including the notorious El Chapo Guzman, and tells the stories of those government employees and officials who are involved. <\/p>\n<p>In 2012, the World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers awarded Anabel Hern\u00e1ndez the Golden Pen of Freedom award. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/uprisingradio.org\/home\/2013\/10\/03\/narcoland-the-mexican-druglords-and-their-godfathers-part-1\/\">Click here<\/a> to listen to Part 1 of the interview. <\/p>\n<p><em>GUEST: Anabel Hern\u00e1ndez, author of Narcoland: The Mexican Druglords and Their Godfathers<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mexico\u2019s drug war has had a death toll of 60,000 in just 6 years.
