Chronicles the rise and fall of the Gallobrothers, a trio of reckless young gangsters whose revolution against New York City's Mafia provoked a bloody civil war that made headlines around the world. Crazy Joe, Kid Blast and Larry Gallo are steeped in legend, from Bob Dylan's ballad Joey to fictionalisations central to the Godfather trilogy. Here for the first time is the complete story of the Gallos' war against the mighty Cosa Nostra, an epic crime saga that culminates in Crazy Joe's murder on the streets of Little Italy.
