Summary

In the early 1960s, Ronnie and Reggie Kray are the new princes of the London underworld and business is good. Their clubs and protection rackets stretch from the East to the West End of the metropolis but they need to expand. Hemmed in on all sides by the other, ever-encroaching London gangs, they need to break new ground. They set their sight on Bham, easy pickings or so they think. The Fewtrells have already marked their territory. Now they stand alone against the vicious onslaught about to be brought down on their heads from two of the most feared names in British criminal history. This is the little known but true story of the bloody battle for Birmingham.

A great book

A great book and well read. If you know the Fewtrell family or are a Birmingham club goer from the 80’s and 90’s it well worth a listen.
