Finally, after over 15 years of research, my book on the Mau Maus and Sand Street Angels youth gangs from Brooklyn in the 1950s is complete.\u00a0 Brooklyn Rumble: Mau Maus, Sands Street Angels and the End of an Era<\/em> is ready for purchase.<\/p>\n

Brooklyn Rumble Book<\/p><\/div>\n

This book uses primary sources including newspaper articles, contemporary reports, court records, crime scene photos and probation records.\u00a0 It also includes information gleaned from hours and hours of personal interviews with former gang members of the Mau Maus and Sand Street Angels as well as those that lived in Fort Greene and the Navy Yard neighborhoods during the 1950s.<\/p>\n

Brooklyn Rumble<\/em> is approximately 6″ wide x 9″ long (or 15 cm wide x 22.5 cm long) and has 370 pages.\u00a0 There are 10 chapters, an epilogue and two appendixes.<\/p>\n

This has been a labor of love for many years and there has been so much that I learned along the way.\u00a0 The process of writing a book is eye-opening and it has taken me to my limit.\u00a0 However, I enjoyed the process as much as the finished product (except for the very finicky layout conundrums I experienced in Microsoft Word when I lost my temper).\u00a0 For those who have been on this journey with me and who will be ordering a copy, I certainly hope you find the book and topic as interesting as I did.<\/p>\n
