. I'm at the part about Siegel's death now, and I just have a tough time believing that he was Frankie Carbo's wheel man. In fact, Carbo being the shooter has been widely disputed over the decades. Anyhow, it's hands down the best book about the west coast mob. The book about San Francisco a couple of years ago was atrocious. ?
That's interesting. I think it's possible Frankie Carbo killed Siegel. Siegel was originally a NYC guy, so I think it's likely a New York man was ordered to kill him. As for the driver, it probably was a Los Angeles guy, because he would know the roads. We kind of have to take Frattianno's word for it, no one else from the LA family back then talked.
