I really enjoyed this autobiography, it's the best one I've read in a while, it was written very well which made it all the better for reading; it was also interesting to learn more about the Krays and mostly in their own words. Crazy that they got sentenced 30 years each.

The Kray twins were notorious London underworld gang leaders during the 60s and this book tells their story from their beginnings in Bethnal Green to their life imprisonment in 1969, largely in their own words and compiled from a series of interviews with Fred Dinenage from behind prison walls.
