02.25: Eliot Ness: The Rise and Fall of an American Hero
2014-01-14 02:35:26| Powells Books Events Calendar
Eliot Ness is famous for leading the Untouchables against the notorious mobster Al Capone. But it turns out that the legendary Prohibition Bureau squad's daring raids were only the beginning. Douglas Perry's Eliot Ness (Viking) follows the lawman through his days in Chicago and into his forgotten second act. As the public safety director of Cleveland, he achieved his greatest success: purging the city of corruption so deep that the mob and the police were often one and the same. And it was here, too, that he faced one of his greatest challenges: a brutal serial killer known as the Torso Murderer. Eliot Ness presents the first complete picture of the real Eliot Ness. Both fearless and shockingly shy, he inspired courage and loyalty in men twice his age, forged law-enforcement innovations that are still with us today, and earned acclaim and scandal from both his professional and personal lives.

Although it's a sequel of sorts to Soundfreaq's 2012 docking alarm clock Sound Rise SFQ-05, this isn't "Sound Rise 2," but rather Sound Rise SFQ-08 , a rethought version that's smaller, less expensive, and a little less powerful sonically.
