Hardback. Condizione: Good. Bestselling author Douglas Century reveals the untold story of the epic rise and fall of Boris Nayfeld, also known as Biba, one of the most notorious Russian mob bosses of our era.Boris Nayfeld, a.k.a. ?Biba,? is the last living boss of the old-school Russian mob in America, and he?s survived to tell it all. Filled with sex, drugs, and murder, Biba?s story is a mind-boggling journey that took him from petty street crime in the USSR to billion-dollar embezzlement in America.Born in Soviet-era Belarus, abandoned by his parents in infancy, Biba?s brutal upbringing left him hungry for more?more power, control, and money. Taking advantage of the rampant corruption in the Soviet Union, Biba?s teenage hooliganism quickly turned into bolder ?black cash? rackets, making him, by Soviet standards, a very rich young man. When authorities took notice and threatened him with ?the supreme measure?? execution by firing squad?he managed to get out of the USSR just in time.Within months of landing in America, his intimidating presence and street smarts quickly made him legendary in the Soviet émigré community of Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, and launched him to the top of New York?s Russian Jewish mob, one of the world?s most inventive, powerful and violent criminal organizations. After decades as a globe-trotting boss, and three stints in U.S. federal prisons he remains unbroken and unrepentant, even as his entire life has unraveled around him.Now seventy-four years old, Biba is a lion in winter. Douglas Century vividly brings the notorious gangster to life in these pages, telling not only his epic journey but also the history of the Russian mob in America.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. Part of the Jewish Encounter seriesBorn Dov-Ber Rasofsky to Eastern European immigrant parents, Barney Ross grew up in a tough Chicago neighborhood and witnessed his father's murder, his mother's nervous breakdown, and the dispatching of his three younger siblings to an orphanage, all before he turned fourteen. To make enough money to reunite the family, Ross became a petty thief, a gambler, a messenger boy for Al Capone, and, eventually, an amateur boxer. Turning professional at nineteen, he would capture the lightweight, junior welterweight, and welterweight titles over the course of a ten-year career. Ross began his career as the scrappy Jew kid, ended it as an American sports icon, and went on to become a hero during World War I, earning a Silver Star for his heroic actions at Guadalcanal. While recovering from war wounds and malaria he became addicted to morphine, but with fierce effort he ultimately kicked his habit and then campaigned fervently against drug abuse. And the fighter who brought his father's religious books to training camp also retained powerful ties to the world from which he came. Ross worked for the creation of a Jewish state, running guns to Palestine and offering to lead a brigade of Jewish American war veterans. This first biography of one of the most colorful boxers of the twentieth century is a galvanizing account of an emblematic life: a revelation of both an extraordinary athlete and a remarkable man.
