Eric Dezenhall
The Devil Himself (St. Martin's Press, $25.99), is Eric Denzenhall's "what if" take on WWII, in which the author uses his long friendship with mobster Meyer Lansky's family to tell a tale of military espionage and mafia justice. Dezenhall weaves together historical facts and storytelling to unmask the patriotic risks taken by Jewish and Italian gangsters in 1940's New York. Denzenhall is the author of Nail 'Em!: Confronting High-Profile Attacks on Celebrities and Business.
