Excerpt: The Purple Gang was a mob of bootleggers and hijackers in the 1920s. Under the leadership of Abe Bernstein, the gang operated out of Detroit, Michigan, in the United States, which was a major port for running cached alcohol products across during Prohibition, since it is on the border with Canada. The Purple Gang consisted of young Jewish immigrants, and others who engaged in theft and armed robbery along Detroit's notorious Hastings Street. They operated between Detroit and Chicago, and would meet behind the Bohm Theatre or in secret places in houses of Albion, a small town halfway between the two points. The gang supposedly received their name during a conversation between two Detroit market owners, each of them gang victims. One owner made the comment: "They're rotten, purple like the color of bad meat." "The Purples were really a very loose confederation of mostly, but not exclusively, Jewish gangsters. The gang started as a group of juvenile delinquents on the lower east side of Detroit, a group of about 16 or 17 children from the same neighborhood. Mostly they were involved in the usual petty crime of juveniles... rolling drunks and stealing from hucksters," according to Paul Kavieff. Bootlegging netted the Purple gang millions of dollars, but the mob was also involved in extortion, hijacking, and jewelry thefts. After the repeal of Prohibition in the 1930s, the Purple Gang members joined the growing national crime syndicate that was replacing the old school mafia leadership, fondly known as the Mustache Petes. The Purple Gang also attempted to run gambling rings in Detroit, especially among the black population. Run by Julius Hor...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=1842585 ... Read more

Excerpt:Personal information Basil Holmes 'Jika' Travers (July 7, 1919 - December 18, 1998) was an Australian sportsman who represented the England national rugby union team and played first-class cricket with Oxford University . Travers, a Shore old boy , moved from Australia to England in 1940 to study on a Rhodes Scholarship. He was capped six times in total for England, the first in the 1947 Five Nations Championship, which England were joint winners of, where he played in their games against both Ireland and Wales. He also played in a friendly against his home country in 1948, as well as making appearances in the 1948 and 1949 Five Nations. The only points of his international career came courtesy of two conversions in a Test against Scotland. An all-rounder at cricket, he was a right-handed batsman and right-arm medium pace bowler. Travers scored 718 runs at 25.64 and took 48 wickets at 30.20 from his 24 first-class matches. All but one of those matches were for Oxford University, with the other coming in a match for the Free Foresters Cricket Club when he swapped sides and played against the University. Although he never scored a century or managed a five wicket haul, Travers made four half centuries and had best figures of 4/65. One of Travers' biggest tests came on his first-class debut, when he had to bat and bowl against India in 1946. Oxford batted first and Travers was dismissed for just 13 by Vinoo Mankad , in what would be his only innings of the match. He had success with the ball though, takin... ... Read more

Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Errol Flynn est un acteur et scénariste américain, né le 20 juin 1909 à Hobart en Tasmanie (Australie) et mort d'une crise cardiaque le 14 octobre 1959 à Vancouver au Canada. Flynn s'est fait connaître principalement pour ses rôles dans les films d'aventure de Michael Curtiz, tels que Capitaine Blood (1935), Les Aventures de Robin des Bois (1938) ou L'Aigle des mers (1940), et de Raoul Walsh tels que La Charge fantastique (1941), Gentleman Jim (1942) ou Aventures en Birmanie (1945). Marié à trois reprises, il est également célèbre pour son tempérament d'« homme à femmes », entretenant une image de séducteur prodigue tout au long de sa vie. Pour les hommes de sa génération, « l'amour à la Flynn » était synonyme de succès amoureux. Il meurt à l'âge de cinquante ans, principalement en raison d'un excès d'alcool. Ayant tourné dans plus de soixante films, son nom est associé aux plus grandes stars de l'âge d'or d'Hollywood. Fils du docteur Theodore Thomas Flynn (1883-1968), un biologiste et anthropologue irlandais renommé, professeur à la Queen's University de Belfast, et de Marrelle Young, de nationalité australienne, Errol Leslie Thomson Flynn naît le 20 juin 1909 à Hobart en Tasmanie, avant de s'installer à Sydney. Enfant, une relation conflictuelle s'installe entre lui et sa mère qui le considérait comme « un diable en culotte courte ». Voulant échapper aux fessées, il s'enfuit à l'âge de 7 ans durant trois jours. Dans son autobiographie, Flynn dira « le principal souvenir que je garde de mon enfance, c'est celui de mes fesses meurtries.» ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Errol Leslie Flynn (20 June 1909 14 October 1959) was an Australian-American film actor, known for his romantic swashbuckler roles in Hollywood films and his flamboyant lifestyle. Errol Flynn was born in Hobart, Tasmania, where his father, Theodore Thomson Flynn, was a lecturer (1909) and later professor (1911) of biology at the University of Tasmania (UTAS). His mother was born Lily Mary Young, but dropped the first names Lily Mary shortly after she was married and changed her name to Marelle. Flynn described his mother's family as "seafaring folk" and this appears to be where his life-long interest in boats and the sea originated. Despite Flynn's claims, the evidence indicates that he was not descended from any of the Bounty mutineers. Married at St John's Church of England, Balmain North, Sydney, on 23 January 1909, both of his parents were native-born Australians of Irish, English and Scottish descent, with convict links to Tasmania long before Flynn's birth. Flynn, living at Mclean Ave Chatswood, Sydney, New South Wales in 1926, attended Sydney Church of England Grammar School (Shore School) where he was the classmate of future Australian Prime Minister, John Gorton. He was expelled for fighting and, allegedly, having sex with a school laundress. He was also expelled from several other schools he had attended in Tasmania. At the age of 20 he moved to N...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=67030 ... Read more
