In 1980, my life as a ‘Goodfella’ came to an end…I traded my Brioni and Armani suits for T-shirts and jeans. I became a normal citizen. I became Joe Schmoe,’ says Henry Hill, author of GANGSTERS AND GOODFELLAS and subject of WISEGUY, which was the inspiration for the blockbuster film GOODFELLAS.

After a quarter of a century of silence, Hill can finally tell us the rest of the story, Gangsters and Goodfellas picks up where Wiseguy left off, taking readers on the crazy ride of Henry’s life - hiding out in the Witness Protection Program, doing prison time for drug charges, testifying in high-profile, heavily guarded mafia trials, leaving his wife and children and eventually ending up in the entertainment business.

Gangsters and Goodfellas also reveals Henry’s lifelong struggle with addiction, his ‘business’ relationships that have ranged from mob bosses to movie producers and how, through everything, he survived: ‘ Its been a hell of a journey, and if I hadn’t lived it myself, I would never believe it. I survived the mob. I survived the government, now I’m trying to survive Hollywood.
