Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - When I turned twenty-five, my father wrapped his arm around my shoulder and pulled me close. Puffing on a cigarette, he took a sip from his beer and said, 'Well, young man, you made it-it's clear sailing from here.'He was talking about surviving the streets of Charlestown during the turbulent 1970s and '80s. He knew what he was talking about. As the owner of a popular bar in the 1960s, my father had found himself in the middle of a violent gang war between Charlestown and Somerville's Winter Hill Gang-a conflict that left nearly sixty people dead over a decade. Many of those involved didn't live to see twenty-five.I didn't consider myself a 'wise guy'-a gangster-but my father knew I was running with a large crowd and living fast. I survived, but just barely.Twenty-one days after I was born, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. My childhood unfolded in the aftermath of the Irish gang wars; my teenage years were shaped by forced busing, bank robberies, the 'code of silence,' and the distant but ever-present shadow of the IRA.Charlestown, Massachusetts-a proud, historic Irish American neighborhood in Boston-is just one square mile, a peninsula surrounded by the Mystic River, the Charles River, and Boston Harbor. It is home to the Bunker Hill Monument, marking the first major battle of the American Revolution, and the USS Constitution, the oldest commissioned warship in the United States Navy.Those of us born and raised there call ourselves 'Townies.' It's a name worn with pride, fiercely protected across generations. In Charlestown, loyalty and tradition matter. Faith, country, and family are not just words-they are a way of life. We are the sons and daughters of the Greatest Generation-men and women who endured the Great Depression, fought in World War II, and returned home to build lives rooted in hard work and sacrifice. They were laborers at the Navy Yard, longshoremen on the docks, truck drivers, police.…
