This item didn’t come in exactly as pictured, but the seller responded immediately and was very gracious in offering me a partial refund even bough I wasn’t expecting one for what I paid for the item. I have bought from this seller before, and they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My other transactions with them have been perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

This item came in exactly as pictured, and the seller posted immediately and was very gracious. I didn't ask for a partial refund. Why would I? I bought what I was expecting and received what I paid for the item. Not sure if I have bought from this seller before, but they are reputable and stand behind the products they sell. My future transactions with them will no doubt be perfect. Great communication. Packaging and price were good. Fairly fast shipping, too. Thanks.

    If you have yet to read this book than you have yet to experience the intense and awe-striking truths of New York City's brutal path. This is an amazing book; every time you turn the page someone is be arrested, stabbed, shot, mugged, killed, plottings are occurring, and rioters are ravaging. Read of the ferocious duels between the New York City Police Department and the riots. Read as some of the most unique sets of characters ever to manifest themselves in the world appear, and come alive right before your very eyes. The book is written in a style of stories. One after another, they continue for pages. Read about a female bartender who butt unruly crowds with her head like a goat. Also read about the North's true opinion on the Civil War, and on Africans. This book will bring ...

  • A little unknown corner of US history packed into a powerful read

    I became interested in the book in which the movie was written. The author gives me an insight on the human nature and needs that caused these gangs to originate. Many readers may find similarities to the gangs of today. Once I started reading, I found it hard to set down. If you love history in the least, it's intriguing and a great read.
