Sometimes you get the sense some things might be incorrect. Also, if you look up pictures of him, you see he was enormously obese, and I don't think he mentioned that anywhere in the book.

That being said, I really enjoyed a lot of the stories. He wrote a lot about gambling junket scams that he pulled. I never heard about that before. And I haven't read many books about the Italian mob in New England, so the different characters interested me.
