Zulus by Caroline Gall.

Birmingham's Zulu Army occupies a unique place in the annals of terrace violence: it's a mixed race gang. Journalist Caroline Gall was granted unprecedented access to the gang and spent a year interviewing Zulu leaders and foot soldiers. She examines their rivalry with neighbours Aston Villa and how clashes with other firms such as the ICF and the Soul Crew saw them become one of the top five mobs in the country. She uncovers their role in some of the worst football-related riots of modern times and looks at Operation Red Card, the successful police operation against them.

This is the blurb.

The Time of our Singing by Richard Powers

From the couple of Powers books I've read, I'd say he is a seriously good writer...but not 'easy'! How are you finding The Time of Our Singing, Goozer?

Epitaph For A Spy - Eric Ambler

 

[heathy1]

Task Force- Story of the Falklands war, bloody good so far

 

[urinal]

Tom Sharpe - Riotous Assembly. This bloke is an absolute genius when it comes to characterization and Black Farce. Well up there with P.G. Wodehouse.
