While the later history of the New York Mafia has received
extensive attention, what has been conspicuously absent until now
is an accurate and conversant review of the formative years of
Mafia organizational growth. David Critchley examines the Mafia
recruitment process, relations with Mafias in Sicily, the role of
non-Sicilians in New York's organized crime Families, kinship
connections, the Black Hand, the impact of Prohibition, and
allegations that a "new" Mafia was created in 1931. This book will
interest historians, criminologists, and anyone fascinated by the
American Mafia.
