Get Capone

Tyler Jefford

Very interesting book about Capone, prohibition and tax evasion. Set in Chicago and surrounding suburbs in the 1920s the first part of the book goes into detail about bootleggers in the city and the crime that followed. Police raids and multiple arrests, it was tax evasion that eventually got Capone put away. I would recommend this book to anyone who is even slightly interested in the topic.
