Capone in His Own Time · Volume One: The Rise · Talking Hologram Book · ▶ Preview

The biography Capone himself read. In September 1930 — while Al Capone still ruled Chicago, a year before the tax trial that destroyed him — Chicago crime reporter Fred D. Pasley published the life of the Big Shot as it was happening: the barber-shop of the twenty-one shaving mugs, Colosimo and Torrio, the seizure of Cicero, and the beer wars at full blaze. Volume One carries Pasley’s Parts One through Four, whole, and closes on the crime that made Capone a national name — the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre — told three ways: by Pasley, by the era’s own photographic record, and by the newspapers America read the morning after, read aloud in Ryan’s voice with the labeled witnesses in Alan’s voice while Al Capone himself stands on the stage. 6 hours 26 minutes of narration. An honest word: this house’s rule is to take an author’s words only when he has been dead a hundred years — Fred Pasley died in 1951, seventy-five years ago — and this one book proceeds on the copyright door: the 1930 biography is public domain in the United States by publication year, with the margin printed in the open for every buyer to weigh.
