New York's Lower East Side is the birthplace of everything from organized crime to anarchist movements. In the nineteenth century, an influx of struggling immigrants seeking opportunity met the harsh realities of industrialization. Poverty and squalor fueled a vicious battle for power and political clout. Local historian Eric Ferrara reveals the wicked history of America's most infamous neighborhood, where the abounding graffiti is a testament to the soul and spirit of the slum.

The New York City historian and author of The Bowery takes readers on a tour of New York’s infamous underworld in this revealing guide. During the early twentieth century, Sicilian and Southern Italian immigrants poured into New York City looking for a better life. But while they escaped the kind of poverty and persecution they experienced in the old country, they soon discovered that certain criminal enterprises followed them to America. Over the years, the island of Manhattan would become a hotbed of organized crime and underworld intrigue. It’s a version of the city that remains invisible to most visitors—until now. In this revealing tour of New York City’s mafia history, Eric Ferrara gives readers an insider’s look at how the mob lived—and where they died. Ferrara goes inside mafia hangouts from the Copacabana to Milady’s Bar and the Thompson Street Social Club. He vividly recounts infamous episodes in the lives of famous mafia men, like Charlie “Lucky” Luciano and Joey Gallo, as well as more obscure players who will be new to most readers. From the beginnings of Black Hand criminal networks to the reign of an all-powerful organized crime syndicate, Manhattan Mafia Guide offers a fascinating look down New York City’s mean streets.

Journalists Craig Thompson and Allen Raymond in 1940 wrote that “...the lower East Side of Manhattan in the first twenty years of the twentieth century was the greatest breeding ground for gunmen and racketeers, since risen to eminence, that this country has ever seen...” Conditions in the pre-Prohibition twentieth century Lower East Side certainly fueled an explosion in gangs and racketeering. Such underworld giants as Meyer Lansky, Louis “Lepke” Buchalter and Salvatore “Charlie Luciano” Lucania were products of that overcrowded and hard environment. But that was just a small part of the area’s underworld history. In this issue, Informer presents a collection of articles representing the seedy and bloody gangland history of the Lower East Side. Material spans many decades of Manhattan’s history. Related article subjects: ∙ End of the Whyos gang. ∙ Historic Photo: Bandits' Roost. ∙ John H. McGurk and Bowery's "Suicide Hall." ∙ The death and life of hoodlum/hero Monk Eastman. ∙ NYC's first Mafia boss? ∙ Italian gang chief with an Irish name: Paul Kelly. ∙ Sai Wing Mock and the New York "Tong Wars." ∙ Frank Lanza's New York firms may have been Mafia fronts. ∙ In search of "Johnny Spanish." ∙ Racketeering future was molded in young Meyer Lansky's neighborhood. ∙ "Death Avenue": Second Avenue, 1910-1924. ∙ 1964 narcotics report included mobster bios. In addition, the issue includes these articles: ∙ New facts about 1928 Mafia conventioneers. ∙ "Bill the Butcher" wasn't from the Five Points. ∙ New and recent true crime book releases. ∙ Looking back from 2023: 150, 100, 75, 50, 5 years ago.
