Book Description
The staggering and outrageous true story of a raucous and wholly unsupervised childhood in the Bronx of the 1970s. Though Fedorchak's hilarious deadpan narrative readers are taken on a journey into a time and place where kids and graffiti artists rule the streets. Filled with hundreds of never-before-published photos of graffiti art and Bronx cityscapes, as well as first-hand accounts of the exploits of legendary graf artists such as Dondi, Blade, Noc 167 and Boots 119, Fuzz One is a guided our of a heretofore uncharted Bronx underworld.

i can not put this book down. excellent NY subway graf photos from 1970 to 1979. his stories are a blast. this kid was bombing trains HARD at the age of 12 with the likes of dondi, noc, etc...if you got any interest in graf get this, you'll not be disappointed! a solid (by that i mean heavy and well produced) book which you'll keep for years and keep going back to, i know i will. put this alongside dondi white and the nasty t-kid.

Quite simply, this book is superb. Such an insight on how the old writers viewed their game back then.
Fuzz one is a remarkable writer... he's been in more scrapes than Jamie Oliver's Cheese Grater and all at such a young age... what he hasn't done isn't worth doing... a true legend.
The book is brilliantly packaged as well... an all-round winner.
Although to keep it real in Fuzz One style, you really should go to a book shop and nick a copy.

Anyone with a passing interest in graffiti, 'The history of...' or New York in the 70's will find a lot to love in this book. As much a coming-of-age for the city around him as it is the author .
In the face of adversity Vincent aka Fuzz One manages to bring a warmth & humour to the pages & i found i didn't want the book to end.
I bought this book to read about the graffiti scene from a particular time, what i got was a modern-day 'Tom Sawyer' & a snapshot of an era that will never come again.
