Mafia book

Published from Collins, a division of HarperCollins Publishers, Mafia is a who's who of the most infamous gangsters of mid-century America from influential old-school criminals to emerging thugs who would dominate the criminal underworld in the 1960s and 1970s. As in the original government file, one page of the book is devoted to each mobster, giving vital statistics, known aliases, family background, criminal record and modus operandi. Each entry also includes a mug shot, making the book a colorful rogue's gallery of unforgettable criminal faces. The result is a hardcover digest of hard facts and richly colorful details.
