Henry Hill's version of his life in the Witness Protection program and beyond Anyone who remembers his drunken jittery lovable scamp persona when he used to call in to the Howard Stern Show will recognize his attempts to soft sell his exploits and paint himself the victimhero Ah Henry I miss you you old scammerOne warning I read the bargain edition of the book and the dust jacket flap and Henry himself mentioned how good it was to include the pictures that couldn't be in Nicholas Pileggi's Wiseguy but there were no pictures I don't know if the bargain copy cheaped out by not including them and the original had them it's now out of print I believe or this is an editorial error

Gangsters and Goodfellas Wiseguys Witness Protection and Life on the RunIn 1980 my life as a 'Goodfella' came to an endI traded my Brioni and Armani suits for T shirts and jeans I became a normal citizen I became Joe Schmoe' says Henry Hill author of GANGSTERS AND GOODFELLAS and subject of WISEGUY which was the inspiration for the blockbuster film GOODFELLASAfter a uarter of a century of silence Hill can finally tell us the rest of the story Gangsters. This was an entertaining memoir of former mobster Henry Hill Ray Liotta's character from the movie 'Goodfellas' The book was lively and energetic I thought and lots of gangster euphemisms like the Forgetta 'bout it True to the movie Henry and his two close associates Tommy DeSimone Joe Pesci's character and Jimmy Burke portrayed by Robert De Niro were some shady and vicious criminals Their personalities where heavily felt throughout the book The book retells his life mirrored in the movie to include his early life coming up as a gangster associate to the Lucchese crime family the drugs and guns and the famous Lufthansa heist More than the movie Henry Hill goes into the other crimes mob personalities fixing games robberies union extortion and other underworld activities the film let out The memoir goes further into his life and his family's life after entering into the Witness Protection Program WPP He consistently admits throughout the book his substancealcohol abuse problem This was also a continued problem even after getting into the WPP with substance abuse problemsI liked the book and thought it was decent After a while I felt the author seemed to ramble and I started to lose interest at times It could be a good addition and recommendation to anyone who like moborganized crime stories Thanks
