Whatever Happened to the Crime Crusaders?; Notes; Index; Author Bio; Back Cover According to the Elliot Ness myth, which has been widely disseminated through books, television shows, and movies, Ness and the Untouchables defeated Al Capone by marshaling superior firepower. In Scarface Al and the Crime Crusaders, Dennis Hoffman presents a fresh new perspective on the downfall of Al Capone. To debunk the Eliot Ness myth, he shows how a handful of private citizens brought Capone to justice by outsmarting him rather than by outgunning him. Drawing on previously untapped sources, Hoffman dissects what he terms a "private war" againstOrganized crimeIllinoisChicagoPreventionCase studiesCrime preventionIllinoisChicagoCitizen participationCase studiesElectronic books.Organized crimePreventionCrime preventionCitizen participation364.4/3/0977311Hoffman Dennis E1051321MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910461396903321Scarface Al and the crime crusaders2481748UNINA01260nam0 22002893i 450 LO1031407020251003044208.020130827d1986 ||||0itac50 baitaitz01i xxxe z01nz01ncRDAcarrierSommacampagnaun territorio, una comunitàa cura di Giuseppe Franco VivianiSommacampagnaComune di Sommacampagna, Comitato di gestione della biblioteca1986XIV, 363 p.ill.30 cm.SommacampagnaStoriaSaggiFIRLO1C041871I945.345STORIA.
