A masodik al capone biography a&e

From the Inside Flap

America's most famous gangster and founder of organized crime as we know it, Al Capone became a multimillionaire and a legend by sating a city's appetite for liquor, pros-titution, and gambling.

But his life is an astonishing mix of contrasts: on one hand he was a brutal killer, and on the other, a dutiful father.
        
The son of Italian immigrants, Capone learned early in life that hard work was the key to success.

His father opened a barber shop in New York City and raised his sons in the stability of the immigrant middle class. Al emulated this spirit by starting up his own shoe-shine business near the docks. Its success enabled him to move the business to the lobby of a Wall Street building, but when rivals destroyed his shoe-shine stand and the police shrugged off the attack, Capone became embittered.
