About Me

Are you interested in seeing where John Gotti smoked cigars, where Paul Castellano chewed lead and where Arnie Rothstein bit the dust after welshing on a gambling debt? Maybe instead you're looking for the dope on Crazy Joe Gallo, Dutch Schultz, Lucky Luciano, Monk Eastman and Mock Duck, a Chinese gangster from the early 1900s whose signature move involved crouching and firing two guns wildly in the air to scare people. You might want to see where Little Sicily, the work of Bumpy Johnson and Frank Lucas and the world's greatest rappers come together in Harlem. Or you could be a history buff and just want to learn how the gangs of New York from the 1800's to the 1960's shaped and were shaped by the Organized Crime Capitol of the World. But then again, you just might want to see New York City from the inside of a climate-controlled bus or get from Little Italy to Harlem in comfort without the hassle of public transportation.
