That book shed light on some of the most interesting names in the history of organized crime, but the name that always stood out to me was Alo's. When I first started coming around these forums, Alo was still alive. I remember many of us being shocked to learn that he was still around. There was no Wikipedia back then. He outlasted everybody.

Another guy I always had a deep interest in was Alo's close friend Jerry Catena. That's another guy who outlasted everybody lol


I agree. That would be a great write-up.
