The book was good, worth reading if you like this subject. I really would like this author to do an addition about the Chicago outfit. I’m not sure why a volume on the Chicago mafia was not in the authors series. I would love to see the author ring a volume on the Chicago mafia.

The book was pretty good especially because of the fact that there aren’t too many books on Accardo. What did bother me is that the author seemed to use a lot of lines from past mob movies and TV shows. Because of the fact that the lines are very specific and that there are quite a few, in my opinion there are too many to be a coincidence. I believe there are several more but these are just a few off the top of my head.
Examples:

The Godfather: when describing Johnny Fontaine this author uses the same line to describe Frank Sinatra “olive oil voice and daggo charm”

Sopranos: “patience turn the mulberry plant to silk.”

Sopranos:” you’re only as good as your last envelope”

HBO Gotti movie: “I wasn’t put on this earth to make them rich and me poor”

HBO Gotti movie: “in your face cosa nostra”
