Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Davis Family: Being an Account of the Descendants of John Davis, a Native of England, Who Died in East Hampton, Long Island, in 1705 Our fathers were worthy of our remembrance and respect, and in pre serving their memory, we honor ourselves. A family genealogy is a most fitting tribute to them, as uniting their children in a common memory and feeling, and equally fitting for the future as a tie of kinship and a memorial of all their scattered children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the fall of 1931, Charles "Lucky" Luciano calls the most powerful gangsters to a hotel in Chicago for a meeting that will soon change the way that organized crime is run in America. He creates the Five Families just like they did back in Sicily. His words were, "We have to run our business like a business." With the Capos, the Crews, and the Consiglieres, all reporting to the head of the family, The Boss, but there will be no more Boss of Bosses. He also created a board of directors, "The Commission" run by the heads of the five New York families. They will have the final say in all matters, even life and death. In a single move, Luciano creates the most powerful organized crime syndicate America has ever seen. And then twenty-six-years later on the morning of October 25, 1957, Albert Anastasia was killed, and with his death came the birth of The Gambino Crime Family. Even though they are no longer headline news in the newspapers across the country, The Gambino Crime Family continues to be active in a variety of criminal enterprises. In this book, we will journey over 100 years of Mafia history from the 1898 reign of Ignazio 'the Wolf' Lupo, through the prohibition years and the 1929 Castellammarese War. We'll trace the footsteps and battles of Lucky Luciano, Carlo Gambino, Paul Castellano, and John Gotti as they make millions, kill thousands, and create empires.

Download or read book Cripple Joe written by Donald Davis and published by Blair. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald Davis has remarked that he "didn't learn stories, I just absorbed them" from a family of traditional storytellers that has lived on the same western North Carolina land since 1781. Considered by many to be the father of family tales, Donald turns the focus of his newest collection on his own father, Joe.As Donald reveals in the opening story, when he was 28, he mistakenly thought his father had died. Until learning of the mistake, he lamented that he'd been "too young and immature to know to ask for the stories that would have filled out his life." Given a "second chance," Donald asked those questions for the next 22 years. In this collection of 20 tender and often humorous stories--including one that tells how the elder Davis came to be called "Cripple Joe"--he shares the lessons he learned from his father. The late Wilma Dykeman wrote in an article for the New York Times, "I could have listened all morning to Donald Davis. . . . His stories often left listeners limp with laughter at the same time they struggled with a lump in the throat." If you are already a Donald Davis fan, here's his latest offering. If you have yet to discover him, here's your chance to see what all the excitement is about.
