Sydney Noir [electronic resource] : The Golden Years

Michael Duffy2017
eBook
The first ever book devoted entirely to the golden years of the Sydney underworld. In the late 1960s Sydney was one of the most prosperous places on earth and one of the most corrupt. A large proportion of the population was engaged in illegal gambling and other activities that made colorful characters such as Lennie McPherson, Abe Saffron and George Freeman wealthy and, to many, folk heroes. In Sydney Noir Michael Duffy and Nick Hordern revisit this dark yet fascinating chapter of Sydney's history, telling stories that would be unbelievable were they not true.
