Mob Boss: A Biography in Blood
Don Stefano Magaddino murdered his way from the sleepy Sicilian village of Castellammare del Golfo to the mean streets of Brooklyn before heading to Western New York and seizing control of the notorious Buffalo mob. They called him The Undertaker, for the fortress-like funeral parlor he ran in nearby Niagara Falls, and by the end of Prohibition he ruled a criminal empire that stretched from Toronto to Youngstown, Ohio. Based on interviews with both underworld and law enforcement sources, and packed with never before seen photographs, Mob Boss is certain to take its place among the classics of Mafia literature!Product Details

EXCELLENT BOOK
This book is excellent and tells a lot about my old neighborhood and what actually went on behind closed doors. A lot of the names are familiar and well-known. A must read for anyone who lives or lived in Niagara Falls.
Good book, but NOT worth $20!!
Mob Boss was a descent book, as to the fact it pertains to the inner workings of the Magaddino family. However, he re-used articles that were in the paper that he owns (Niagara Falls reporter)....you could find those online. All in all, the information was pretty solid, but it could have been alot more in depth and for a $20 paperback book, should have been alot longer than 100 pages. My advice is to get the book from someone who already has it because it is a pricey read for the amount of pages you get (I finished it in about 3 hours!)
