"A Guide to Gangsters, Murderers & Weirdos of NYC's Lower East Side" (ISBN: 978.1.59629.677.0), has been published by The History Press. This book is a street by street reference guide which examines the early lives of such infamous criminals as Charles "Lucky" Luciano, Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel, and Meyer Lansky -- all of whom grew up (and earned their criminal stripes) on the Lower East Side. It also traces 200 years of gang fights, political brawls, domestic violence, natural disasters, assassinations, extortion, Black Hand bombings, organized crime, the Mafia, the Jewish mob, labor struggles, domestic terrorists, biker gangs, fires, police raids, riots, suicides, snake bites, swindlers, zoo animals, and even a cannibal. Written by a crime researcher and fourth generation Sicilian-American-New Yorker.
