A battered ex-library 1967 paperback. This book was the basis of the 1958 Elvis Presley film "King Crole" - no, I'm not joking!
The back cover says:
"THE VIOLENT WORLD OF DANNY FISHER
Danny Fisher grew up on New York's lower East Side, an ugly world of switchblades, prostitutes and mobsters. He learned about life from girls like Ronnie, who had sold her body andher pride; from cheap, ruthless crooks like Maxie Fields; and from an ex-pug named Sam, who wanted to make Danny a Golden Gloves champion.
Deep down, Danny was a good boy driven to dishonesty by poverty and ambition. Danny only knew one law:
TAKE WHAT YOU WANT!"
