| A Few Customer Reviews
Quick Moving Story of Human Garbage Funny how Weeks' family all became warm-hearted, family-centerd professionals with good jobs and charitable interests, while he turned into a mob killer and enforcer. Weeks Senior sounds like a piece of work, hitting his son across the face with a baseball bat "absent-mindedly." I keep reading these books about Whitey and Billy Bolger thinking I'll stumble onto something that reminds me of real life, but in truth all these people are in a world of their own.
Honest facts about Crime A very honest account of crime in Boston. I never liked the author at all throughout the book. Throughout the book he discusses how he grew into the life of crime, and almost wishes to gather sympathy from the reader. No sympathy here. He deserves what he got interms of jail time. And probably should have been given life/electric chair. Aside from that, I couldn't stop reading about the stuff he was involved in. Irish Mafia details are interesting.
donna benjamin kevin, does my father have a head or not? I was told several time by whitey "jimmy the bear did not do this". he gave me an italian name, that I didn't want to remember. I knew jimmy the bear in walpole when i married my second husband, Ronald Macdonald, but never wanted him pointed out to me, as i believed Jimmy. Give me some insight please. I have COPD, 24 oxygen, and bipolar mood disorder and want to let my children know who there grandfather was. I lost my father at the age of eleven. Nothing was ever said to me other than he was hit by a car. you wrote your book well, i bought it, now help me. cigs12@aol.com |
