A classic masterwork newly updated
The electrifying true story of the rise and fall of New York's
notorious Bonanno crime family
On New York's Park Avenue on a rainy Tuesday night in October
1964, the famous Mafia chieftain Joseph Bonanno was kidnapped by
two mobsters and reported by the police as dead on the following
morning. More than a year later, Bonanno mysteriously reappeared,
setting off a bloody mob feud that came to be known as the "Banana
War."
In this monumental work--packed with intimate details and
brilliant reporting--bestselling author Gay Talese first brought to
the American consciousness a world and a life previously known to
only a few. No other book has done more to acquaint readers with
the secrets, structure, wars, power plays, family lives, and
fascinating, frightening personalities of the Mafia.
