"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, the author of 'Gangsters and Goodfellas' and subject of 'Wiseguy' - the basis of the blockbuster film, Goodfellas. After a quarter century of silence, Henry Hill can finally tell us the rest of the story. This book picks up where 'Wiseguy' left off, taking readers on the crazy ride of Henry's life - hiding out in the witness protection programme, 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 industry. Including Henry's collection of exclusive photos, the book also reveals Henry's lifelong struggle with addiction, his 'business' relationships that range from mob bosses to movie producers, and how, through everything, he survived.

The inside story—from the organizer himself--of the largest unrecovered cash haul in history. This full account brings readers behind the heist memorialized in Goodfellas, a crime that has baffled law enforcement for decades. From Henry Hill himself, The Lufthansa Heist is the last book he worked on before his 2012 death. On December 11, 1978, a daring armed robbery rocked Kennedy Airport, resulting in the largest unrecovered cash haul in world history, totaling six million dollars. The perpetrators were never apprehended and thirteen people connected to the crime were murdered in homicides that, like the crime itself, remain unsolved to this day. The burglary has fascinated the public for years, dominating headlines around the globe due to the story’s unending ravel of mysteries that baffled the authorities.One of the organizers of the sensational burglary, Henry Hill, who passed away in 2012, in collaboration with Daniel Simone, has penned an unprecedented “tell-all” about the robbery with never-before-unveiled details, particulars only known to an insider. In 2013, this infamous criminal act again flared up in the national news when five reputed gangsters were charged in connection to the robbery. This latest twist lends the project an extraordinary sense of timing, and the legal proceedings of the newly arrested suspects will unfold over the next year, continuing to keep the Lufthansa topic in the news.

Now, in his inimitable style, Henry Hill tells some spicy stories of his life in the Mob and shows you how to whip up his favorite dishes, Sicilian style--even when you're cooking on the run. Learn delicious recipes that make even the toughest tough guy beg for more... Henry Hill was a born wiseguy. At the pizzeria where he worked as a kid, he learned to substitute pork for veal in cutlets--which came in handy later when the bankroll was low. At thirteen, he got his first percentage from a local deli--that lost business when he started supplying the neighborhood wiseguys with his own heroes. And what great heroes they were. Once he entered Witness Protection, though, Hill found himself in places where prosciutto was impossible to get and gravy was something you put on mashed potatoes. So he learned to fake it when necessary (for example, Romano with white pepper took the place of real pecorino-siciliano cheese), and wherever he found himself, Hill managed to keep good Italian food on the table. He still brings this flair for improvisation to his cooking. No recipe is set in stone. And substitutions are listed in case you need them for these recipes and many more: Mom's Antipasto - Sunday Gravy (Meat Sauce) - Cheater's Chicken Stock - Striped Bass for Paulie - Fat Larry's Pizza Dough - Henry's Kickback Antipasti Hero - Sicilian Easter Bread with Colored Eggs - Clams Casino - Osso Buco - Oven Penitentiary Sauce with Sausage - Michael's Favorite Ziti with Meat Sauce
