here are two good books about the mob.

"unlocked" by Louis ferrante, a young wiseguy who did ten years of hard time, in federal prisons. he went through hell, he was always getting ratted on, when he got busted in new York, and when he was inside prison, great read, takes away any romance of O.C.

"mr new Orleans" by Michael randazzo. the story of frenchy, who was mobbed up with marcellos family in louisana, he speaks of jim garrison, and his take of the killing of JFK. naming Marcello as plotting against kennedy. very good read.
