THE AMBOY DUKES

Over two million copies of this novel have been sold in the United States. Of the novel, this has been said, "The Amboy Dukes represent a small minority among boy gangs, but because of over-crowded schools and tired teachers, racial and religious tensions, that small minority is becoming alarmingly less small. That is why Mr. Shulman's book is important and timely." With its slashing realism it is one of the best novels on juvenile delinquency ever written.
