St. Louis was a city under siege during Prohibition. Seven
different criminal gangs violently vied for control of the town's
illegal enterprises. Although their names (the Green Ones, the
Pillow Gang, the Russo Gang, Egan's Rats, the Hogan Gang, the
Cuckoo Gang and the Shelton Gang) are familiar to many, their
exploits have remained largely undocumented until now. Learn how an
awkward gunshot wound gave the Pillow Gang its name, and read why
Willie Russo's bizarre midnight interview with a reporter from the
St. Louis Star involved an automatic pistol and a floating hunk of
cheese. From daring bank robberies to cold-blooded betrayals, The
Gangs of St. Louis chronicles a fierce yet juicy slice of the
Gateway City's history that rivaled anything seen in New York or
Chicago.
