This captivating documentary series follows the rise of the Irish Mob in America. Spanning over 100 years, from the Irish Gangs of New York in the late 1800s to the 1970s, this six-part documentary series tells the amazing stories of first generation Irish kids who became some of America’s most notorious and wanted gangsters. The Irish gangster story represents the American Dream in its totality - the idea that a kid from the gutter can rise to power, money and class, through whatever means necessary. With contributions from Pulitzer Prize winning authors, the gangsters themselves, family members and the cops who chased them down, this is the definitive story of the Irish Mob in America never before told in its entirety.
