A couple years ago a book called Five Families came out, has anyone read it? It was quite thick and I could use a good long read.

A couple years ago a book called Five Families came out, has anyone read it? It was quite thick and I could use a good long read. As recommended numerous times by Turnbull (he's a good man), I've started reading Selwyn Raab's FIVE FAMILIES. At almost 800 pages, it'll be quite an undertaking. But so far, so good.  You'll enjoy five families I have just finished reading five famlies and i dont know what to say apart from absolutley amazing one of the finest books i have ever read,loved it absolutley loved it. Originally posted by Turnbull:
[b] I read "Five Families" several months ago, and I found it to be one of the most informative books on the Mob.
FIVE FAMILIES, as my personal favorite "true crime" book.
Does that answer your question?    A really fantastic well written informative on the money book! Go for it!
Don Cardi  Five - ten years from now, they're gonna wish there was American Cosa Nostra. Five - ten years from now, they're gonna miss John Gotti.

Just bought the hardback version off of amazon, can't wait to read. The last mob book I read was... The Godfather Returns  . Hopefully this will wash the taste out of my mouth!

I got    for Christmas I am also thinking of buying 1. Take The Cannoli : Stories From the New World By Sarah Vowell 2. Mafia Dynasty : The Rise and Fall of the Gambino Crime Family By John H. Davis 3. Gangland: How the FBI Broke the mob By Howard Blum any of you read them, are they good?
 He - (Simón Bolívar) - was shaken by the overwhelming revelation that the headlong race between his misfortunes and his dreams was at that moment reaching the finishing line. The rest was darkness. "Damn it," He sighed. "How will I ever get out of this labyrinth!" So what’s the labyrinth? That’s the mystery isn’t it? Is the labyrinth living or dying? Which is he trying to escape - the world, or, the end of it?

Buy LITTLE MAN: Meyer Lansky And The Gangster Life, by Robert Lacey, instead. It's a FAR superior book.
In my opinion, one of the best mob bios ever written.  Just ordered Finally arrived today,,ganna take this to America.
