Son of Scarface - A Memoir by the Grandson of Al Capone
 

Son of ScarfaceHis name is Chris W. Knight Capone and he is the author of 'Son of Scarface'. Actually, Chris is the grandson of Al Capone, and he has definitely inherited his grandfather's Bearish bulk and good looks. However Chris didn't have it easy while growing up, and he has written a book all about it.

Here's from his site SonOfScarface.com: "A provocative story, 'Son of Scarface' is a young man's search for his father's mysterious past. The simple, loving and honest parent had a double life and secret history that placed his unsuspecting family in a troubling legacy. In his autobiography, Chris Knight details how he uncovered the truth behind a family secret he heard as a young boy at his father's funeral. An unbelievable story, his father life his entire life with deep secrets rivaling fiction. Growing up in a broken home, Chris and his sister were physically abused by their mother, whose actions were perhaps an attempt to safeguard her children from the truth that their grandfather was American's most infamous gangster Al Capone - Scarface".

The following is a great article about Son of Scarface on Wikipedia. From Wiki: "Son of Scarface is the true story of a 13-year-old who discovers at his own elusive father’s funeral that his grandfather was none other than the infamous Chicago gangster, Al Capone (aka Scarface). The autobiography by Chris W. Knight (Chris Knight Capone) chronicles the author's broken childhood as he tries to uncover family secrets that his abusive mother violently forbids him and his sister from pursuing. In this stranger-than-fiction story, Chris Knight Capone is not allowed to have any friends or to even to leave the family compound as a child.

Only as an adult is Chris Knight Capone able to uncover the dark secrets of his grandfather Al Capone and of his own father, William Knight, a man who had a fraudulent birth certificate and lived under an assumed identity.

After years of meticulous research, the help of private investigators, genealogical research, and a courage to face the truth of his own identity, Chris Knight Capone confirmed that he was in fact the offspring of the world’s most notorious gangster".

And... what's completely interesting about all this is that this very handsome and debonair Chris Knight is a Bear. He's truly a compelling man and this is a must-read for any Bear lovers. It's available here on Amazon.
