Synopsis
In his own words, real-life American gangster Frank Lucas recounts his life as the former heroin dealer and organized crime boss who ran Harlem during the late 1960s and early 1970s. 8-page color photo insert., A suspenseful memoir from the real life American gangster, Frank Lucas In his own words, Frank Lucas recounts his life as the former heroin dealer and organized crime boss who ran Harlem during the late 1960s and early 1970s. From being taken under the wing of old time gangster Bumpy Johnson, through one of the most successful drug smuggling operations, to being sentenced to seventy years in prison, Original Gangster is a chilling look at the rise and fall of a modern legacy. Frank Lucas realized that in order to gain the kind of success he craved he would have to break the monopoly that the Italian mafia held in New York. So Frank cut out middlemen and began smuggling heroin into the United States directly from his source in the Golden Triangle by using coffins. Making a million dollars per day selling "Blue Magic"--what was known as the purest heroin on the street--Frank Lucas became one of the most powerful crime lords of his time, whilerubbing shoulders with the elite in entertainment, politics, and crime. After his arrest, Federal Judge Sterling Johnson, the special narcotics prosecutor in New York at the time of Lucas' crimes, called Lucas and his operation "one of the most outrageous international dope-smuggling gangs ever, an innovator who got his own connections outside the U.S. and then sold the narcotics himself in the street." T his powerful memoir reveals what really happened to the man whose career was dramatized in the 2007 feature film American Gangster, exposing a startling look at the world of organized crime.

    My new favorite place to look and purchase books. A+++ The first surprise was the care taken in packaging the book. It was mailed in a nice literature mailer and the book itself was wrapped to guarantee more protection. I was expecting the book to be shipped in just a padded envelope. The book was a great price and the description was spot on. Quick in delivery. Cannot wait to buy from you again. Thank you! From a future customer.

    Fantastic Seller, the magazine was in mint condition, no reader thumb creases neither on front cover, nor back cover. Shipped in a rugged bag envelope mailer, arrived completely undamaged in its 2000 mile journey! BTW, great price, came bagged and boarded too! Thank You!

    Bookseller was outstandingly helpful and communicative when USPS miss-routed the book, and it eventually arrived correctly, in great condition and superbly packed to protect this great edition, signed by author. Bookseller also refunded the shipping cost, even though the error was USPS's, not his.
