Introducing THE POLISH GANG. A must-have in any library. A classic in the making, The Polish Gang delivers from laugh to bullet. A must-read for American history buffs, action-adventure hounds, and love story fans! The Polish Gang takes you deep into the heart of the Roaring Twenties. It violently shakes your emotions with both good and evil characters. Often lighthearted, yet tenderly thoughtful, Karl J. Niemiec captures a Runyonesque sense of humor.

Back Cover: In the grips of the Roaring Twenties Detroit was wide open to bootleggers and murderers. Dollars by the fistful were for the taking by anyone strong, cunning, and murderous enough to chance dying for them. A city in a stupor, gone mad with drink, where blood ran at the drop of rum, Detroit became a civilization taken over by strong-armed gang members. During this time of social unrest, at the very height of prohibition, there existed - now only in old-timers' porch swing tales that grow mysteriously dim as time slips by - a small band of young men known as The Polish Gang. Just what happened to The Polish Gang? Where did they go? And why do so few people remember? And why, in a time of such profound documentation and national scrutiny of one city, is there but one small newsprint article hinting about this elusive band of young men? These mysteries and more are answered in The Polish Gang.

Inside Flap: Though this story is a complete work of fiction loosely based on my grandfather's family, the girl in the back seat of my pop's convertible on the front lawn of Michal's Bar was not. This is a 'what if' she was promised to someone else - a love story set in 1929 Detroit.

Inspired by the antics of my pop, Bronislaus (Benny) Niemiec.
