"Sinatra, The Chairman" - James Kaplan. Sinatra biography, post 1954. (second part to Kaplan's "The Voice", which covers Sinatra's birth to 1953")
This book is bigger than a phone book. I wouldn't recommend trying to read it cover to cover. Definitely a collectible for the die hard fan. If you get it at a library or something, however, it has a great index, and a ton of material on Frank's mob connections.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
