Even among the Mob, the Westies were feared. Out of a partnership between two sadistic thugs - James Coonan and Mickey Featherstone - the gang dominated the decaying slice of New York City's West Side known as Hell's Kitchen in the 1970s and '80s. Excelling in extortion, numbers running, loansharking and drug-peddling, they became the most notorious gang in the history of organized crime. The then prosecutor Rudolf Giuliani called them 'the most savage organisation in the long history of New York street gangs'. Upping the ante on brutality and depravity, their speciality when it came to punishment and killings was dismemberment. Their reign lasted almost twenty - their end would come as their own violent natures got the best of them and precipitated a downfall as infamous as their rise. This revised and updated edition, brings the story of the Westies up to date with 'where are they now' snapshots of the men - and women - of the Westies.

‘The Westies’ is a book that you cannot put down, so be warned. It is well-written, with “pitch perfect” dialogue, and overall a very fast paced and crazy “education” into undoubtedly the most vicious gang of the 1970s “operating” in the United States. If I had to compare them with any existent organized criminal gangs it would be MS13.If you are not from NYC and think you’ve learned just about all there is to know about organized crime in The Big Apple, well, not so fast. I am learning an awful lot I never even suspected went on, even though I am quite familiar with The Westies predecessors such as the namesakes of the “Five Families,” and the enlightened originators of “The Syndicate,” Lepke and Luciano, and loose cannons like Dutch Schultz, and the Italian-Jewish “Combination” which the press later dubbed “Murder Inc.”Author T.J. English has packed his True Crime epic with a host of fascinating characters who actually existed, and he fleshes them out, giving the reader not only mere physical descriptions, but psychological profiles and life histories of everyone from the bad guys (and the really bad guys) to the members of various law enforcement agencies who were determined to protect the decent, hard-working and mostly law-abiding citizens of New York’s Hell’s Kitchen from young toughs who at times act as minions of the devil himself.
