Frank Costello

A biography written by Costello's personal lawyer of thirty years. This is the story of Costello's career as a rum-runner, his rise as the founding father of the American Mafia, his role in the end of Al Capone's reign, his political control of NYC, the Kefauver crime hearings, his survived assassination attempt and new chieftain's vendetta. This is the true telling of a legend and an era.
