BLOOD, GUNS & VALENTINES AL CAPONE AND THE GHOSTS OF GANGLAND CHICAGO The Roaring 20's -- that decade of gangsters, jazz, Prohibition, and flappers - left a bloody mark on Chicago history with speakeasies, violent shootouts, corrupt cops, and a myriad of ghosts those violent days left behind. But there was one man who personified the era more than any other - Al Capone. He rose to the highest levels of the Chicago underworld when he was only 25 years old, becoming one of the wealthiest men in the world with scores of speakeasies, brothels, gambling joints, and hundreds of gunmen under his control. But despite his power, Capone was a man who lived in fear, haunted by the vengeful spirit of a victim of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in 1929. Travel back in time to the years of Prohibition with Troy Taylor and discover the story of Chicago gangland and the era when the streets ran red with blood! Unravel the haunting of Al Capone and other Windy City ghosts to the sounds of bootleg liquor bottles, jazz music, and rattling tommy guns - then enter the world of Big Jim Colosimo, John Torrio, the "Terrible Gennas," Dean O'Banion, and more! Come along for the rise and fall of Capone, the Beer Wars, crime and corruption, deadly shootings, "One-Way Rides," assassinations and suicides, and other terrifying events that left lingering spirits on the streets of Chicago. You may think you know the stories of Prohibition Chicago - but you ain't seen nothing yet!.
