Resilience and Me is a collection of stories from the students of Tallaght Community School. The publication came about back in September 2020 when students were returning to school after the extended closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Melanie Martin, a teacher at the school encouraged her students to reflect on a time they showed resilience in their lives to enable students to draw upon their own resources as they embraced a new and challenging school year.

This book tells the story of America's most notorious Irish- American gangsters- the men who rose poverty, brutally created criminal empires and made millions before more often than not dying violently.In different circumstances, these men could have been captains of industry, politicians, or union leaders; instead they chose a path of crime that turned them into some of the most wanted men in America.
