    Very good history of the racketeering times of The Rose City

  • Lesser Known History of a Seedy City

    I love Portland's twisted history. This book is a great starting point, from the Portland's mob involvement to the Shanghai tunnels, brothels and opium dens, gambling halls, the Kennedy Racketeering probe, on and on. Pick it up!
