M. Evans, 2004. First edition. Hardcover. First edition, first printing. Hardcover. 273 pp. with index. Fine in fine dust jacket. Former powerful mob figure Henry Hill, on whose story the classic mob movie "Goodfellas" was based, picks up his autobiographical account from the time he entered the Witness Protection Program after flipping on his Mafia cronies in 1980. Here Hill comes clean about his next twenty years, filling in the gaps as well as setting record straight on his wiseguy days. The Feds shipped Hill and his family to Nebraska and the n Kentucky where they lived under manufactured identities but eventually the quiet suburban life became too quiet for Henry and he began associating with various seedy, nefarious characters like crooked horse breeders, Peruvian drug dealers, and numerous women. He eventually wound up in Los Angeles with a brand new money making scam, this time in the film industry. Fine / fine. Item #E32296
