call me an ethnocentric but i'm always skeptical of these books about black gangsters written by outsiders. I mean,here we have a white Canadian telling the frank Matthews' story. another bad example was the BMF book. the jewish author made BMF out to be something it's not.BMF was a record label not an organized crime group like she portrayed it. blacks should write their own history, and not let others do it for them. Italians and jewish writers tell their stories,jerry capeci,george Anastasia,rich cohen,etc
