"These are the conclusions from Rich Cohen's exciting to read book:
'Tough Jews' is a fascinating read back into the history of organized
crime," wrote Martin Scorcese. And Mario Cuomo defined this book as
"unusually entertaining". Larry King, a friend of the family, said, "WOW.
What a book. . . You do not have to be Jewish to love Tough Jews."
Arnold Rothstein was the founding father of American organized crime. He was murdered in 1928. He left a legend and a myth and also a tribe of notorious "boys": Louis Lepke Buchalter, the first builder of an empire of crimes which produced in 1940 around $2 million a year, Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegal, Dutch Schultz, Abraham Twist Kid Reles, Pep Strauss, Mendy Weiss, Gurrah Shapiro, Red Levine and many others.
They were Jews, criminals and murderers. They also did not hesitate to murder other Jews who dared to challenge them in the underworld. They left a "legacy" to be followed by the Italian "disciples" of Rothstein: Lucky Luciano, Joe Adonis, Louis Capone, Albert Anastasia and many others.
