Cobbled from legend, memory, police records, the self-aggrandizements of aging crooks, popular journalism, and solid historical research, this is a powerful account of New York City's tumultuos past. Asbury presents the definitive work on this subject, an illumination of the gangs of old New York that ultimately gave rise to the modern Mafia and its depiction in cult films like The Godfather.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Society & CultureTopic: History, Social SciencesRelease Year: 2003 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
