Neat little clip about Allen May on the Speaking circuit.

He is in the process of writing Crimetown USA part 2. He's been doing a lot of speaking engagements. For anybody interested in his book, here is the link:

His article on the Boston Mob War was the best researched thing ever written about it.... am not aware of any other contenders on the subject...his book will probably be good.

Remember how Allan learned of CHarlie Murgie's involvement in the Jungle Inn?

FOH didn't you give him some photos or something as well ?

Look forward to Allen's next book , the 70-80-90- is more interesting to me anyway. JCB do you know if did any good with his first one ? sell a bunch of copies etc

The first part of CRIMETOWN was a big success regionally. Obviously he would like to tap into the national sales but there is not a high demand for the smaller mob cities.

yeah if only lenny strollo was out there doing interviews on 60 mins etc, bring some national attention to ohio lcn to bad lenny never wrote a book
the other thing is more of a historical coverage he didn't have a anyone giving there life story which is usually more interesting to the masses

It’s also too bad RC wouldn’t come out...I know Allan reached out to him and the $$ he wanted was a joke. Nobody would pay that for a story on Cleveland...Angelo Lonardo would have been a big story had he done 60 minutes

Yes, I met Allan for lunch and I shared a bunch of pictures taken at camp with him.
He's hoping to write a book about Pittsburgh and I told him we could discuss publishing some of my photos.
I believe the fact that his current book hasn't sold very well has delayed him publishing a book about Pittsburgh

RC as is the Crab? Yeah that's a shame. RC is about 90, if I were him I would just do it to get my story out and soldify my life's legacy. From what I understand he or his family aren't exactly in serious need of money.

His brother Orlie and his brother in law Steve “Moose” Almasy to care of his gambling while he was away...plus his son made tens of millions off real estate and with Sky King Fireworks. RC still comes to Youngstown in Summers and over Thanksgiving & Christmas. He won’t talk unfortunately.

Pittsburgh is nowhere in sight for him. I don’t see that ever happening with him.

Are you speaking for Allan or just your gut? That's not to say your gut is wrong.

Just spoke with him yesterday. He’s got 4 projects before he even considers Pittsburgh. Christie, Antillar and myself are working on something. Stay tuned...
