When her husband was murdered on the orders of Chicago mobster
Frank Nitti, Georgette Winkeler wife of one of Al Capone's
"American Boys" set out to expose the Chicago Syndicate. After an
attempt to publish her story was squelched by the mob, she offered
it to the FBI in the mistaken belief that they had the authority to
strike at the racketeers who had killed her husband Gus. Discovered
60 years later in FBI files, the manuscript describes the couple s
life on the run, the St. Valentine's Day Massacre (Gus was one of
the shooters), and other headline crimes of that period. Prepared
for publication by mob expert William J. Helmer, Al Capone and His
American Boys is a compelling contemporary account of the heyday of
Chicago crime by a woman who found herself married to the mob."
