Synopsis: Fans of Henry Hill, New York, or pop culture won't want to be without this gritty, funny, and informative guide through the underbelly of the world's greatest city. Less poetic but more bullet - and sex -riddled than EB White's THIS IS NEW YORK, A GOODFELLA'S GUIDE TO NEW YORK tells riveting and hilarious stories about Hill's life in the Mob. And for anyone who has ever wondered where the real New York wiseguys go to get the best calzone in town, where they hang out when they need to lay low, and where the infamous unmarked graves hold the dirty secrets of La Cosa Nostra, this book tells it all - how to live, play, and even hide in New York City. Full of photos, from Hill's private collection, this book shows readers how to find the hotels frequented by legendary mobsters, the restaurants where they ate - and got whacked - and even the childhood homes of the best known mafiosi. This book promises to show a side of the city that even the natives know nothing about.
