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. Additional ISBNs 9780415990301, 0415990300
