Welcome Chopper. A great place to start would be with FIVE FAMILIES by Selwyn Raab. It's just about the most comprehensive and accurate book ever written about the New York mob and it recently became available in paperback.

Why not go back to basics and read this..


The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers.
First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves.
It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

Between The Law And The Mafia, The Law Is Not The Most To Be Feared

"What if the Mafia were not an organization but a widespread Sicilian attitude of hostility towards the law?"

"Make Love Not War" John Lennon
