Book Reviews of The Mad Ones: Crazy Joe Gallo and the Revolution at the Edge of the Underworld
Book Review: Experiencing Joey
Summary: 4 Stars
Employing a fast-paced, almost attention-deficit writing style, Folsom delivers a well researched and expertly crafted biography that allows readers to experience rather than merely observe the life of "Crazy Joey" Gallo and his siblings. The author jumpily connects real world incidents and fictional references, as he weaves compellingly through the rackets career of the Gallo brothers.
The book's dance-around style limits its usefulness as a Gallo reference work. However, The Mad Ones is an engrossing and entertaining voyage.
