When his father is framed for murder, immigrant Nikolaus McGovern rallies a motley crew of street youths in a rip-roaring coming-of-age adventure based on the period history of antebellum New York City! Against a backdrop of rampant political corruption, vicious street gangs, nascent labor reform, and ardent xenophobia, can Niko and his friends triumph in a life-or-death battle against their oppressors-or will they succumb to the engines of socioeconomic progress?
Bowery Boys: Our Fathers is a fascinating read that will educate and enamour the reader with its rich and gripping story. The artwork complicates the writing perfectly, and the team of Levine, Bertram and McKee are certainly one to look out for in the future. Whatever you do, please give this historically ambitious graphic novel a read. Read Full Review
