Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Plenty of tales of heroism have been shared about the Second World War, but few illustrate the anxiety and injustices endured on U.S. soil. Dick is a fatherless boy and the only man in a household of nine. Anthony is your average Italian kid from Boyle Heights. He's courting Stevie's baby si…ster, Lucy. Stevie's a go-getter whose reality is carved by his father's sink or swim devotion to LA business. Frankie's a glamor guy attending USC and the privileged son of a notorious Sicilian gambling czar. His kid sister Anna fears the same fate as the Japanese. War was never part of the plan. But more than simple war ties them. Italian-Americans made up the largest ethnic group to serve, yet sadly, more than half a million of their relatives living stateside became "enemy aliens." The Fight Abroad honors the military service of Los Angeles Italians, while The Fear Back Home centers on the hardships they faced along the California coast--property seizure, curfew and travel restrictions, forced relocation, shame, and even internment. The quiet stigma is no longer hidden. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Details the rise of West Coast gambling ships, highlighting crime figures, rivalries, and their legacy.Three miles outside California's jurisdiction amid the second half of the roaring twenties, a handful of bootleggers, gamblers, Mafiosi, and political fixers sank their earnings into a bois…terous new venture. From kidnapping to killing, bouts with lawmen and public officials, and feuds among competing factions, It's a Pleasure covers the events that defined the gambling ship era, the vessels where the magic happened, and the players who ushered in the offshore betting craze, some of whom are now considered founding fathers of modern-day Las Vegas. Los Angeles crime historian, Dr. J. Michael Niotta, reveals the rivalry between the powerful Spring Street gambling clique and the local mafia, highlighting the role of his great grandfather, L.A. godfather Jack Dragna, a co-owner in two of the earliest water gamblers on the West Coast. Moving toward the war years, Niotta delves into the glad-handing tactics and troubles of personable gambler Tony Cornero, and snapshots the industry's abrupt end. It's a Pleasure includes a foreword by Geoff Schumacher, VP of Exhibits and Programs, Las Vegas Mob Museum, and an introduction by Steve Lawson of the California Wreck Divers and Adventurers Club of Los Angeles. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Early movers and shakers of Los Angeles didn't always operate within the confines of the law, including opportunist and family man Big George Niotta, who supplied sugar to make illegal liquor. Niotta rose to prominence thanks to his magnetic charm and collaborations with infamous bootlegger…Frank Borgia and influential gambling baron Jack Dragna. But the fall is hard for those soaring high. Bled dry by the IRS, Niotta fought to restore his wealth through ringer horses, a multimillion-dollar lottery and a notorious gambling parlor. Through the moves of a pawn dead set on wearing a crown, author J. Michael Niotta explores three decades of L.A. crime, including a rare insider's look at the history of the Eagle Brewing Company and other survivors of Prohibition. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
