"An engaging biography that debunks many, many myths." --<i>San Francisco Chronicle</i> <p/>"Offers a new history of Capone, and separates fact from fiction in the process. . . . Bair's Capone is powerfully human." --<i>Smithsonian</i> <p/>"Compelling reading." --<i>Chicago Tribune</i> <p/> "Bair discovers a rich trove of legends. . . . [She] is a wise and often iconoclastic guide through Capone mythology." --<i>The New York Times Book Review</i> <p/>"<i>Al Capone </i>provides tremendous insight into the man who, decades after his death, may be the best-known Chicagoan of all time." --<i>St. Louis Post-Dispatch<br></i><br> "Dispel[s] many of the myths that have long swirled around Al 'Scarface' Capone." --<i>The New York Post <br></i><br> "[Bair] has succeeded in giving the real 'Scarface' the literary legacy his life and story richly deserve." --<i>Houston Press <p/> </i>"An intimate, psychologically astute, and richly embroidered biography of the most famous criminal in American history." <b>--</b>Dick Lehr, coauthor of <i>Black Mass: Whitey Bulger, the FBI, and a Devil's Deal</i> <p/> "Beautifully researched and immensely readable . . . Reveal[s] a consistently surprising and exquisitely complex portrait of the man behind the legend." <p/> --Karen Abbott, author of <i>Sin in the Second City: Madams, Ministers, Playboys, and the Battle for America's Soul</i> <p/> "A complete and engrossing picture of Capone's life and times." <b>--</b>Nicholas Pileggi, author of<i> Wiseguy: Life in a Mafia Family and screenwriter of Goodfellas and Casino</i> <p/> "Enticing . . . knocks it out of the park. In the hands of a master life-storyteller, Al Capone's brief, explosive career seems as all-American as apple pie and sawed-off shotguns." --Marion Meade, author of<i> Bobbed Hair and Bathtub Gin: Writers Running Wild in the Twenties <br></i><br> "A definitive biography of 'Public Enemy #1'. . . . Bair has written perhaps the last word on Capone. Highly recommended." <b><i>--</i></b><i>Library Journal</i>
