Can anyone recommend any good Mafia books? I don't actually own any yet but want to start reading more about it. I'm most interested in the John Gotti, Philly Mob (mainly Scarfo and Merlino), and the Genovese crime family.

Thank and if you have any recommendations not on these topics feel free to say.


Makes you think. Makes you think about the people in your life. And when I think, I think of Neil. If he were here now what would he say? He would say "John what's it about? What's life about... if you dont go through it as a man's man?". He'd say "Suck it up, take the fall do the time. That made you what you are. That makes you what you are. How long have we been around this thing of ours? This Cosa Nostra? 120 years. What's it about? It's about the rules, perimeters. You take the beating for a friend, you don't run, you don't lay down, you don't betray who you are. What you are.
