I really enjoyed reading "A man of honour" but as everyone says: you have to understand its Joe Bonnanos self flattering version of what went down: A saga with some truth in it. Why isnt Carmine Galante in the book? Why cant Bonnano admit to the fact that the main reason for his visit to Sicily in 1957 was to structure up the heroin distribution with the Sicilian Mob? Why did he claim to have been kidnapped by Maggadino in the 60s?

Some one else on this site launched the theory that he was very much active until Galantes murder in 1979, even though from Arizona due to Gambinos ban on him operating in NY after his plot against the other families was revealed.

I think it sounds fair. Hairy Knuckles: Your view on this?
