5.0 out of 5 stars True story of the Krays - by the man who knew them best, 18 Jul 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Doing the Business (Paperback)
Interesting and insightful glance into the lives of Britains hardest and most terrifying criminals. A thrilling read , this book tellsthe story of the Krays from the inside. Who could have been better qualified to write about the Kray twins other than their brother Charlie?

4.0 out of 5 stars This book tells the story , without infamous bravado ., 9 April 2000
By A Customer
The book takes you from their lives as children in London , through to their convictions for the crimes the where encarcerated for . It's not a book for those who don't appreciate the fact that you either flourish or flounder in a world of depravity and sink in the mire of poverty . You have to take into account that once you are held in high esteem in the underworld , you can not be taken for a fool , or be seen . Because if that happens ther will always be somebody to take your place . And personally that's what I think this book portrays , as well as the mental problems with Ronnie , and Reggie's fear of upsetting his sibling . Even though Reggie and Charlie always had the upper hand on Ronnie when it came to buisness accumen . If it hadn't of been for Ronnie's paranoia they could have been at liberty for far longer and have a tighter grip on racketering up to the present day . Who knows ? Well thats my review , this is a decent book and well worth a read . enjoy John Kerr

By A Customer
A complete un-biased summary of life in the firm from Charlie Kray. Explains incredible links between the American Mafia and major world events which climaxes with a FULL EXPLANATION OF THE ASSASINATION OF JOHN F KENNEDY. Provides incredible insight into the London Underworld and the way things worked in the East End. Read It.
