Book Description

5 May 2011 1845967747 978-1845967741

Twins Ron and Reg Kray were without doubt the most powerful, violent and deadly gangsters that London has ever known. They ran protection rackets, clubs and casinos, as well as fraudulent 'long firms'. They blackmailed, intimidated and killed - for many years with impunity thanks to their powerful cronies in the Establishment. Working with all five main Mafia families in New York, they were expanding their business worldwide when they were imprisoned for murder in 1968.

Featuring revealing new material, The Krays: A Violent Business is the story of their lives - and of the secrets and scandals the British government still doesn't want you to know about.

1.0 out of 5 stars The Kray Files repeated. 16 Aug 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
After reading the authors 1998 book, 'The Kray Files' I decided to get his latest. I was most annoyed to see a large part of this 'new' book is taken directly from 'The Kray Files'..... I am talking whole chapters although they have different titles. There is some new stuff but nothing not already known or just the authors opinion. A ripoff in my opinion but I'm sure the charity shop will like it.
