Title: The Best History of the Mafia?
Review: Yes and no. It's mostly about the roots and growth of the Mafia in Sicily and too little about its origin, growth. and power in America where, during Prohibition, outlaws became kings by supplying hootch to a thirsty public. That subject, of course, has spawned books on its own, but this book could have treated the American Mafia larger than it did because how and what The American bosses - Luciano most famously - did (including their actual organization) grew directly out of their Sicialian roots.Still, for the most part, a terrific read.
