The Starker: Big Jack Zelig, the Becker-Rosenthal Case, and the Advent of the Jewish Gangster
ISBN: 9781581826029 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Selig Harry Lefkowitz, alias Big Jack Zelig, was New York's first great gangster boss.

I wrote it for myself, because though I lived through it, I needed to work through it. I had to tell my story to complete my healing. This book is my story about how my wife's abortion affected me. I hope to share it with millions of men who may have been where I once was...or are there now. Abortion not only destroys children's...

Known to the press and public as the 'Fighting Parson', he and his handpicked squad of dry agents burst into the roadhouses of Essex County with pistols drawn and fists clenched.
