Unveiling the Shadows of Organized Crime: The Life of Clyde Smaldone

The Spanish translation of Mario Puzo’s crime‑fiction classic "Omerta," a tale of mafia honor and its breach.

Shows how the Italian mafias have grown in power and become ever more interconnected since World War II through their criminal business interests in tobacco smuggling, construction, kidnapping, and narcotics.

Traditionally, territory west of the Mississippi was controlled by the Chicago Mafia family; territory east of the Mississippi by the New York families. In the late seventies, the Mob's ruling commission agreed that New York would have exclusive control of Atlantic City in exchange for hands-off of Chicago's interests in Vegas. The agreement proved to be short-lived when Atlantic City turned out to be a relative bust compared to the enormous take from the Vegas boom of the eighties. In this book, 30-year FBI crimefighter Bill Roemer tells how two underworld legends--New York godfather Joe Bonnano and Chicago godfather Tony Accardo--waged an all-out war for the huge source of illicit profits that is Las Vegas.--From publisher description.

The Sicilian mafia, or Cosa Nostra, is far from being Italy's only dangerous criminal fraternity. The south of the country hosts two other major mafias: the camorra, from Naples and its hinterland; and the 'ndrangheta, the mafia from the poor and isolated region of Calabria that has now risen to become the most powerful mob of all. Each of these brotherhoods has its own methods, its own dark rituals, its own style of ferocity and corruption. Their early history is little known; indeed some of it has been entirely shrouded in myth and silence until now. This is a book of breathtaking ambition, charting the birth and rise of all three of Italy's mafias. It blends ground-breaking archival research, passionate narrative, and shrewd historical analysis to bring Italy's unique 'criminal ecosystem', and the three terrifying criminal brotherhoods that evolved within it, to life on the page.
