The legendary Dow Twins dominated the world of Black disco and entertainment for an unprecedented fifty years. Attractive, charismatic, and identical, they had a Midas touch when it came to business ... and women. This memoir tells their amazing story from their beginnings hosting parties for their peers-black college students-to their years as managers and promoters at two of the hottest black nightclubs in New York City- Justine's and Leviticus, both owned by another black entrepreneurial group, The Best of Friends (TBOF).
After thirteen years with TBOF (both Midtown Manhattan clubs lasting nearly a decade longer than Studio 54), The Dow Twins opened their own nightclub and restaurant, Manhattan Proper (which thrived for 32 years), and gave countless roving parties all over Manhattan from the South Street Seaport to the Copacabana and from the Waldorf Astoria to Riverside Park. Always innovative in their choice of venues, for 25 years The Dow Twins hosted one of the city's most iconic and well attended annual galas for 2,500 guests on the USS Intrepid aircraft carrier docked on the Hudson River.
Over time, The Twins amassed an exclusive hand-picked guest list of thousands of upscale Black and Latino party-goers who followed them for decades-and not only for their parties. The Dow Twins also co-hosted Black ski trips to elite resorts from Vail, Colorado to Nagano, Japan and vacations from West Palm Beach to Acapulco. One of the industry's best kept secrets-The Dow Twins provided a lifetime of fun for untold numbers of loyal followers. This memoir documents an unprecedented half century of success in a fickle business where longevity is rarely achieved.

Like it was written by George Santos
Received an Advanced Reader Copy from a friend. I am an avid true crime reader and upon completion I question if the author is credible. The timeline does not add up for his age and the times of his alleged involvement in organized crime. Some of the things in the book he is alleged to have said and done I remember almost word for word from movies I had previously watched. He literally stole a scene from the movie the accountant with Ben Affleck and said that he did it. I did a little research after completing the book and learned that this author was also claiming in 2010 that he was a long time member of the Bloods Gang. That coupled with the above leads me to believe that it is nothing more than fantasy. Do not waste your time or money

What a difficult story to tell. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Definitely made me think.
I had hopes for this book but was not expecting what I would read within the pages. If your kink is deplorable grammar, incoherent sentences, and inconsistent messages, then this book is for you. At first, I thought the book I received was not the book I ordered. But as I dived in, it was very confusing. I would not recommend this book to anyone
There are not many reviews on the internet for this book. In researching the many stores selling the book, it was self-published which makes a lot of sense. The online description is written perfectly, so reading the actual book was very difficult. Pages two and three are written clearly as well as the table of contents. Pages 155 and 156 are also written logically.
It appears this book was written, then sent through a program like “Grammarly.” Once completed it seems it was published without being re-read or edited. The first clue was the title narrative that used “Has” instead of “As.” The table of contents is one page off from what it shows on pages four though seven. Many of the “q’s” are written as “[]”
Below are some examples of what was within the pages of this book written verbatim:
“Chains & Discipline/ Domination & entry/ Sadism & Masochism (BDSM) is a wide classification of bed room play.” Page 9
“When bringing up the topic of chains, you are actually asking a person to offer you their depend on, their flexibility, and also possibly their suggestion of security in exchange for sensual/sexual enjoyment, power-play, and also feasible re-evaluation of your very own connection.” Page 39
“Techni[]ue can take a selection of kinds and also be as easy or facility as you pick to (new paragraph) bargain for your details scenario” Page 52
“BDSM stands for chains as well as entry, technique and also supremacy as well as sadism and also masochism.” Page 125
“SHELF means Risk Aware Consensual Kink.” Page 130
“Approval is whatever.” Page 152
“your twist isn’t my twist, yet your twist is OKAY.” Page 153
“You can be a top, base, or button” Page 153
Good service, good book. Just what I was looking for! Thank you!
