A first edition, first printing of 'The Untouchables' by Eliot Ness, published by Messner in 1957. A very good book without inscriptions - occasional light spotting to the page edges. In a very good unclipped wrapper, a little rubbed to the corners chip to the foot of the spine and to the top also - some general edgewear - rough patch to the rear panel. Eliot Ness and Al Capone are two central figures in the history of Prohibition-era America, representing opposing forces in the battle over alcohol prohibition and law enforcement. Eliot Ness, a federal agent, was instrumental in the efforts to enforce Prohibition laws in the 1920s. As the leader of a specialised team known as the "Untouchables," Ness relentlessly pursued Al Capone, a notorious Chicago-based gangster who built a criminal empire through bootlegging and various illegal activities. Ness is remembered for his dedication to upholding the law, often at great personal risk, and for his role in bringing down Capone, ultimately convicting him for tax evasion in 1931.
