The vanguard of this criminal juggernaut is still led by the Mafia\u2019s most potent and largest borgatas: New York\u2019s Five Families.<\/p>\n<p>Five Families is the vivid story of the rise and fall of New York\u2019s premier dons, from Lucky Luciano to Paul Castellano to John Gotti and others. This definitive history brings the reader right up to the possible resurgence of the Mafia as the FBI and local law-enforcement agencies turn their attention to homeland security and away from organized crime. <\/p>\n<p>This updated tenth-anniversary edition features a new preface by the author.<\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 A Thomas Dunne Book for St. Martin&#8217;s Griffin; Reprint edition (October 4, 2016) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 816 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 1250101700 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-1250101709 <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 2 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 6.1 x 2.1 x 9.2 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-medium\">\n<h3 class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book readable and interesting.
