Update
Before you get to the article…
On February 23, 2018, my book on the Mau Maus and Sand Street Angels, who were two Brooklyn youth gangs from the 1950s, has been completed. It took 15 years of research and writing to complete Brooklyn Rumble: Mau Maus, Sand Street Angels, and the End of an Era. This book is roughly 6″x9″ and has 370 pages and includes a look at the characters in the Mau Maus and the details of a gang killing that happened in February 1959 in front of the iconic Brooklyn Paramount Theater (now Long Island University).

My sister is a graphic designer and she was kind enough to offer to design my book cover for free. Designing book covers can be expensive and and this cost savings is very much appreciated! She did an incredible job. Below is the cover of Brooklyn Rumble: Mau Maus, Sand Street Angels, and the End of an Era.
