Default Re: HBO's Boardwalk Empire

Was waiting to watch this all at once, when I got a break from my other tv commitments.

Holy ****. These three seasons were amazing, best gangster related thing ever. So compelling, great acting, superb writing/sets/clothing.

Getting Capone's rise to power as a bonus is great. Really love Richard, Eli, and Rothstein. Miss Jimmy a little, but the second half of s2 showed he had no where to go. s3 made up for it ten-fold.

Beautiful show...

Also, I hope Van Alden starts working for Capone.

Could anyone recommend any books about the history on Rothstein, Capone, and the gang world of the 20's and 30's?
