Graffiti Pocket Guide, Lou Savelli, Robert Cekada, Anthony Mottola, Looseleaf Law Publications, 2007

Graffiti can be found in every city and town. No community is immune.

The Graffiti Pocket Guide provides an understanding of graffiti, gang graffiti, and the type of people engaging in writing graffiti. Often called 'the newspaper of the streets', graffiti needs to be deciphered and eradicated.

This pocket guide exposes the types of graffiti, writing styles, taggers, gang banger graffiti, deciphering graffiti, investigating graffiti criminals and other topics relating to graffiti.

If you know what you're looking for, graffiti can serve as a revealing "language of the street." From helping you develop leads in a shooting, to tipping you off to brewing gang violence - graffiti can be a powerful crime-fighting and investigative tool.
