Synopsis
The Purple Gang was a loosely organised confederation of mobsters who dominated the Detroit underworld and whose tentacles reached across the country. This is the hitherto untold story of America's most notorious criminal groups., Now back in print, this is a story of one of America's most powerful and infamous groups of thugs and mobsters.The Prohibition Era allowed the sinister practices of the black market to gain a foothold in American commerce. When legal trade was no longer allowed to supply American consumers with alcohol, they turned to those who could supply the booty. And so in Detroit, a city perfectly positioned to receive contraband from neighboring Canada, a group of young men grew in power and profile to become one of the nation's most notorious gangs of organized crime.The Purple Gang, as they came to be called, quickly rose to power and wealth. Alcohol, gambling, drugs and extortion were only some of the methods they used to make quick money. Law enforcement was powerless against the fearless "Purples" whose strong-arm tactics and bribery stretched from the local to the federal level, rendering them truly untouchable. Among the legendary leaders of the gang were Abe Axler, the four Bernstein brothers, and the cruel and violent thug, Harry Millman. When the gang put a contract out on Millman's life, they imported killers from Murder, Inc.During the chaos of the Prohibition Era, these men rose to the highest ranks of organized crime and then shattered it all with bloodthirsty greediness and murderous betrayal., The Purple Gang - Detroit's ruling organised crime syndicate - became one of the most notorious gangs during the Prohibition Era. The gang was comprised mostly of the offspring of recent immigrants - Eastern European Jews who were hardworking and honest. This vicious gang quickly rose to power by engaging in extortion, gambling and the illicit trade of drugs and alcohol. The book if graphically illustrated with 32 pages of photographs depicting the gangsters, from their lives on the street to their bloody demise., Now back in print, this is a story of one of America's most powerful and infamous groups of thugs and mobsters.
