Not just a story. It is real life memories told without all the gore and lore of Hollywood mafioso. Told from a time when it was sometimes hard to distinguish between the good guys and the “bad” guys, because the so called bad guys were just like you and me, in most respects. The culture of the close knit Italian extended family is beautifully described for those not lucky enough to have experienced it! If you were one of the lucky ones, you will be smiling and shaking your head in agreement as you wind your way through the book recalling your own similar family dynamic. Full of historical mob history and told from a new and fresh perspective. Read to believe!
