A very presentable first printing of this chronicle of the rise and fall of "the Black Godfather" Nicky Barnes, signed by co-author Tom Folsom. ABOUT THIS BOOK: From inside the Federal Witness Protection Program, the "Black Godfather" chronicles the 1970s New York City underworld and the most devastating urban crime wave in history. 1962 LEROY "NICKY" BARNES walks out of Green Haven State Prison. There are an estimated 153,000 heroin abusers in the United States. 1977 Two million junkies score $100 million worth of Barnes's smack a year. Sporting flashy suits, riding in a Citroën with a Maserati engine and satisfying a wife while pleasuring a harem of mistresses, Barnes presides over a staggering multinational dealership that pushes dope and launders money with the efficiency of a Fortune 500 company. Despite President Nixon's creation of the Drug Enforcement Administration and New York State's adoption of the no tolerance Rockefeller drug laws, Barnes's operation seems impregnable. How does a small-time hustler and heroin addict end up on the cover of the New York Times Magazine as MR. UNTOUCHABLE, the one gangster the Feds can't touch? And how is the future Mayor of New York City Rudolf Giuliani involved? With Machiavellian pragmatism matched with biblical fury, Barnes lays bare his life's remarkable trajectory--a rise, fall and resurrection defined by brutality, brotherhood and betrayal.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: very near Fine. First edition. 8vo. [4], v-xliii, [3], 3-323, [1] pp. Brown cloth with gold lettering blocked in brown on the spine. Illustrated with a few in-text and full-page diagrams and charts. Inscribed to Joe Elder by the author, inscription dated 1979, after what Moffatt refers to as the "fine Wisconsin Conference". With a typed letter to Joe Elder, signed by Michael Moffatt. The letter is on Rutgers Stationery, and closes with Moffatt asking Elder to excuse "the somewhat butchered Tamil". Moffatt was an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Rutgers College, and Joe Elder was a Professor in the Department of Sociology and in the Department of Languages and Cultures of Asia. He is now Professor Emeritus. A nice association copy of Moffatt's study of the culture of India's caste system, and of the religious and cultural practices of those at the bottom of the caste system. Moffatt argues that when isolated from the other ranks of people in the caste system, "the untouchables" mimick the caste system among themselves. His book is based on fourteen months of observation in a few villages in Tamil Nadu. Foxing to the textblock.
