Mafias to Christ book recommendations?

[chongshipei]

I just finished Run, baby, run and enjoyed it very much. Are there other Mafia to Christ biographies or autobiographies which you can recommend?

I heard Joe Donato speak in the 1970s. He was in the Mob in California, second in command. This video tells a little about him and also mentions a book written about him.

He had a prison ministry and helped build orphanages.

P.S. Are you familiar with the book The Cross and the Switchblade? True story of a country pastor that goes to New York City to work with the violent street gangs.

They also made a movie about this story.

I noticed the video I posted above about Joe Donato isn't available now. So I'm posting another one for you. I heard Joe Donato speak in the 1970s.
