Building an empire of organised crime on a scale never done before or since, the brothers swindled, extorted, terrorised and brutally murdered. In this classic account, the author explores the strange relationship that bound the twins together, and charts their gruesome career to their eventual downfall and imprisonment for life. Made into a major film starring Tom Hardy. Illus., Postscript and Index. 336pp. p/back. Vg.
