His memoir traces his experiences running fixed gambling games across the country and world, mastering the tools of a trade that proved as colorful as it was dangerous. Now in his 70's, Jack's new crew are his grandchildren, as he shuttles them to school, soccer games and swimming meets. Jack lives in Connecticut and claims to be retired."--from back cover.
