Sobre este artículo
Knopf, 1928. Hardcover. Very Good. Medium shelfwear, Interior clean as a whistle. Illustrations pristine. The jacket, on the other hand, has taken hits and then taken some more. Front is complete and bright if browning at the edges, ditto the back. The jacket spine, however is almost entirely missing, showing the bright and solid red spine with yellow text and decoration. Under new mylar.
Sinopsis
Herbert Asbury , an early 20th-century journalist, made a name for himself by documenting the gangs, pimps, prostitutes, and thieves that thrived in the underbellies of New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and New Orleans. His works, still in print after sevety-five years, are often hailed as the best snapshots of their time period . The Gangs of New York was the basis of Martin Scorcese's 2003 film.

Sobre ProPen
I'm a one Rosie operation with no storefront but lots of terrific books located adjacent to a cow pasture at the eager edge of the Pacific. Photos available on request. No charge for my swell bookmarks. It is always better to inquire than to be displeased.
