Godfathers of Chicago's Chinatown - Harrison Fillmore - Bog

indgår i True Crime serien

Bag om Godfathers of Chicago's Chinatown

"Even in a town notorious for gangsters like Al Capone, much of Chicago's lawless lore has remained uncharted. Chicago's Chinatown, in particular, was home to a vast criminal enterprise, strictly bound by old-country rituals, rules and traditions. Few know of Moy Dong Chew, aka 'Opium Dong, ' one of Chinatown's original godfathers, much less Frank Moy, his fedora-wearing predecessor. While incidents like the St. Valentine's Day Massacre dominated newspaper headlines, the Tong Wars were being waged in the shadows. Author Harrison Fillmore relates the long and sordid history of Chinatown's underbelly from the early 1880s to the late 1980s, when a federal indictment essentially ended organized crime's grip on its good citizens."--
