Acerca de esta escucha
The first biography of Capone to focus on his youth in Brooklyn and the events that shaped him into one of history’s most notorious criminals.
Many people are familiar with the story of Al Capone, the legendary Chicago gangster best known for orchestrating the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre. But few are aware that Capone’s remarkable story began in the Navy Yard section of Brooklyn, New York. Tutored by the likes of infamous mobsters Johnny Torrio and Frankie Yale, young Capone’s disquieting demeanor, combined with the “technical advice” he learned from these shady teachers, contributed to the molding of a brutal criminal whose pseudonym, “Scarface”, evoked fascination throughout the world.
Despite the best efforts of previous biographers lacking true insider’s access, details about Capone’s early years have, until now, mostly been shrouded in mystery. With access gained through invaluable familial connections, the authors were able to open the previously sealed mouths of Capone’s known living associates. Collecting information through these interviews and never-before-published documents, the life of young Al Capone at last came into focus.
Among the many revelations in Young Al Capone are new details about the brutal Halloween Night murder of rival gangster 'Wild Bill' Lovett, grisly details on how Capone and his Black Hand crew cleverly planned the shootout and barbaric hatchet slaying of White Hand boss Richard 'Peg Leg' Lonergan, insight into the dramatic incident that forced Capone to leave New York, and much more.

Historia
Al Capone and Chicago at one time were almost synonymous. While opinions of the infamous mob leader varied from group to group, Capone was at one point seen by many as a lovable outlaw and modern Robin Hood. How could this man who ran the most vicious criminal organization in the country become so beloved by the general public? Was it the rags-to-riches tale of an immigrant that rose from the bottom to make it to the big time that transfixed the nation? Or is it something else entirely?

Reseñas editoriales
Before Al Capone became known as one of America's most feared gangsters, he was just another thug on the streets of Brooklyn. Using a host of new primary documents and interviews with family relations, John and WIlliam Balsamo are able to share the never-before-told true story of Al Capone's early years in New York City. Daniel May's performance of this biography adds excitment to an already intriguing chapter from the bloody and real annals of gangster history.

Historia
If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

Bearable and understandable.
I enjoyed the voices and the variety of stories that was packed in. I did not enjoy the jumping from one decade back to another decade. Ok read or should I say listen.

Before he made it big
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
I have read quite a variety of books regarding Mob history. I was interested in listening to this one as it specifically stated it would be taking you through the life of Capone, PRIOR to "when he made it big".
The history was entertaining and engaging. The narrator was what made the book for me. He did an excellent job of narrating. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Accurate
It flows well but you do need to pay attention as it builds on the characters. I went back a few times as I was listening as close as I should have been.
The voices are rather good and the reader gives great inflectiin.

Great content, but awful narration
The narrator’s attempts at accents are terrible. Moreover, his frequent inhalations of breath detract from the enjoyment of this well written story; the every few seconds noticeable inhaling is extremely distracting. I’d prefer to read this book, rather than continue listening past the fourth chapter.

Is this fiction or non-fiction?
It is hard to take this book seriously. It seems to present itself as a biography. But, it is written as fiction. I don’t like it. Perhaps it should have been written as a novel?
