Typical mafioso tell all from one man's perspective. What does come out is the mafia has become more cartoonish in this media, reality show driven world. But I suspect you would end up just as dead crossing them. Alite's story is his side of course and one has to ask why he would be any more credible than the others. Both he and Junior got off lightly in the legal process, and of course got to keep the money. ( )
a straightforward and unsurprising account of the Gambino crime family since the mid-1980s, from the perspective of killer-turned-FBI cooperator John Alite. Anastasia accepts Alite’s account at face value, resulting in a simplistic rehashing of events.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Blood and Honor and The Last Gangster--"one of the most respected crime reporters in the country" (60 Minutes)--comes the sure to be headline-making inside story of the Gotti and Gambino families, told from the unique viewpoint of notorious mob hit-man John Alite, a close associate of Junior Gotti who later testified against him. In Gotti's Rules, George Anastasia, a prize-winning reporter who spent over thirty years covering crime, offers a shocking and very rare glimpse into the Gotti family, witnessed up-close from former family insider John Alite, John Gotti Jr.'s longtime friend and protector. Until now, no one has given up the kind of personal details about the Gottis--including the legendary "Gotti Rules" of leadership--that Anastasia exposes here. Drawing on extensive FBI files and other documentation, his own knowledge, and exclusive interviews with insiders and experts, including mob-enforcer-turned-government-witness Alite, Anastasia pokes holes in the Gotti legend, demystifying this notorious family and its lucrative and often deadly machinations. Anastasia offers never-before-heard information about the murders, drug dealing, and extortion that propelled John J. Gotti to the top of the Gambino crime family and the treachery and deceit that allowed John A. "Junior" Gotti to follow in his father's footsteps. Told from street level and through the eyes of a wiseguy who saw it all firsthand, the result is a riveting look at a family whose hubris, violence, passion, and greed fueled a bloody rise and devastating fall that is still reverberating through the American underworld today. Gotti's Rules includes 8 pages of black-and-white photographs. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
