Chicago's Deadliest Side

Horrific Untold Chicago Stories

This book is a description of events that have occurred at the ground truth of violence that happens on Chicago’s West Side mean streets. There are various reasons for these events, be they economic, environmental, or personal.

Like war stories, the most accurate accounts come from the soldiers who were there. I was there. Every day, for many years, I asked myself: “I wonder if it’s my turn to die today before leaving my front porch."
