What is The Violent Years: Prohibition and the Detroit Mobs (Gangsters and Rum Runners) about?

In The Violent Years, a companion title to bestseller, The Purple Gang, author Paul Kavieff has once again masterfully fused the historical details of crime in Detroit with the true flavor of the Prohibition era. Numerous gangs scrambled to grab a piece of the profit to be made selling illegal liquor which resulted in gruesome warfare among the many European ethnic groups that were involved. Paul Kavieff manages to provide insight into how so many immigrants gravitated to crime and why the public tolerated it for as long as they did. <div class="bookitem
