The Boss Always Sits In The Back: A Memoir (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780985300043)

The place was Hudson County, New Jersey...minutes away from midtown Manhattan. Jon D Amore was first published at 10 when a story he d written about the Civil War was distributed throughout the county school system. During that time, Jon began studying the guitar, leading him to hone his love and knowledge of music and composing. By his 20s, he was traveling cross-country as a musician. While touring, Jon was also a feature writer for New Jersey s 3rd largest newspaper, The Passaic Herald News, allowing him to enjoy the best of his favorite worlds...playing music and writing. Eventually, he found a different side of life. He said, Goodbye and it s been a slice! to the music business and entered the corporate world. By the millennium another change took place. For more than two decades, Jon knew that within him there was the desire and ability to write, so he drove to Los Angeles and started as soon as he arrived. He didn t stop until the manuscript and screenplay for The Boss Always Sits In The Back were completed. Jon didn t want to write just another mob story. Instead, he crafted a suspenseful, exciting and entertaining story based on one of the greatest scams to hit Las Vegas...a scam that changed history and gambling laws across America forever! Through Jon s eyes...and from the words of his Godfather, an underboss who told his story before he died...The Boss Always Sits In The Back reveals the demise of the mobsters who ran northern New Jersey. Jon has written and co-written several screenplays and articles. He still resides in California where he continues to write...and listen to music.
