	GANGSTERS INCORPORATED - GEORGE MORAN

	The Man Who Got Away: The Bugs Moran Story--A Biography - Investor Bookstore
		Rose Keefe has written a great follow up to her effort entitled "Guns and Roses" on Dean O'Banion with O'Banion cohort George "Bugs" Moran's biography "The Man Who Got Away." Whatever we have previously read regarding Moran has been between the time period from 1920 through the St. Valentine's Day Massacre in 1929.
		Later in his life some of Moran's new neighbors would notice how he would pull into the nearest parking space after rounding a corner until the cars that had been behind him had passed before continuing on his way.
		This book not only covers the entire life of Bugs Moran, but it is also the story of Chicago during those "shoot-em' up" days of the 1920's when Mount Carmel Cemetery became the ultimate premature destination for those who coveted riches as a beer baron.

		Over the years the killers of Amatuna were believed to be Jim Doherty of the West Side O’Donnell gang and Vincent Drucci of the North Side gang.
