Book Reviews of Street Soldier: My Life as an Enforcer for Whitey Bulger and the Irish Mob
Book Review: WHO BETTER TO TELL WHITEY'S STORY THAN HIS ENFORCER?
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a straight-shooting and electrifying tale of Whitey Bulger's gang in Boston. It offers insight into Whitey's world unlike any book I've read so far on the subject. The author is not looking for forgiveness or sympathy and often refers to himself as a scumbag. He gives graphic details on his bonecrushing days and Whitey's violence. Well chronicled and fascinating reading.Book Review: Whitey's wanted by the FBI, my ...
Summary: 5 Stars
Been waitin for this little book for a while. Came out good, although who knows what is true and what aint. Mac's account of growing up in a tough situation is moving, and his sense of humor is winning. You probably cannot read this book without concluding that the FBI is a complete joke. Bulger is being harbored or is dead. Que pasa Billy?Book Review: You'd be an idiot to believe all this crap.
Summary: 1 Stars
Eddie Mac is using this book to "get back" at people he doesn't like. He accuses people of rape...yet he has 2 rape arrests himself. He accuses people of being a pediphile and blames the "system" for his evil nature. The fact is, this guy is a pervert and a thug. He claims to get sexual gratification from breaking people's bones and even goes so far as to say he had a "semi" erection from breaking some guys knees. For starters, if you believe this crap he is selling, your a fool, secondly, Eddie Mac is a cowardly thug, typically talking trash about all these people he supposedly messed up and cowed, then talks about how he is now a "cleaned up" college grad who wants to help the neighborhood kids, the same ones he used to watch undress I guess. People this guy is a liar, the material is the same as watching a drunk bully in a bar tell stories about his old "glory days". Simply not worth the time or money.Book Review: good book, tough to read at times
Summary: 4 Stars
I almost stopped reading it at least three times The things that happen to this guy are tough to read about.. I think some may think it is not all true and that might be so in part. if you come from the Boston area I think it is easier to understand the Southie thing...Book Review: ok but is it true
Summary: 4 Stars
the book will keep you interested,but is it true after reading Brutal and brother bulger and rat [...] you don't hear much about this guy so I can say this guys thinks he's bigger than who he is.
