EAST END GANGLAND
In this fascinating and revealing book, James Morton looks back at the crimes and the criminals that have given the East End of London its legendary reputation: the Sabini brothers, nicknamed The Italian Mob', whose extortion racket was helped by a close relationship with the police; the fight, in the 1950s, for 'King of the Underworld' between Jack Spot and Billy Hill; the rise and fall of Ronnie and
Reggie Kray and many others . . .
GANGLAND INTERNATIONAL
Fast-paced and wide-ranging, Gangland International considers the history of organised crime, from the Italian and American Mafia to the Triads, the Russian mafiya, the Japanese yakuza and the South American drug cartels. James Morton also examines the role of the Green Gang of Shanghai, that of Rocco Perri in Toronto, the Australian razor gangs, New Zealand's Mongrel Mob, the Dubois family of Montreal and the French Zemour brothers .
