In Prohibition-era Minneapolis, a city of vast wealth inequality and vicious antisemitism, young Isadore rose from impoverished newsboy to millionaire. Kid Cann's ruthless determination, growing organized crime network and a willingness to commit wanton violence ignited his meteoric ascent. He got away with innumerable crimes over four decades before a series of relatively minor offenses brought him down. Although ravaged by stress and stripped of his social stature, the infamous gangster had earned a place in the folklore of Minnesota. Historian Ron de Beaulieu recounts the saga of the state's most notorious crime boss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron de Beaulieu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467158933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467158930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ron de Beaulieu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46431283282175,"sku":"9781467158930","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e23936a5-48b3-41e2-a301-6c60ba180cbf.jpg?v=1735140879","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/minnesotas-most-notorious-mobster-ron-de-beaulieu-9781467158930","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
