Description

Praised in France whilst the greatest book ever discussed the mafia in virtually any dialect, Cosa Nostra is just a intriguing, violent, and darkly amusing bill that reads like fiction and takes us deeply in to the inner sanctum of this secret society where few have dared to tread.In this gripping history of the Sicilian mafia, John Dickie utilizes surprising new study to expose the inner workings of this secret society having a murderous report. He describes how the mafia started, how it reacts to problems and risks, and presents us to the actual-life figures that influenced the National imagination for decades, producing the mafia a global, bigger than life social trend. Dickieis stunning cast of characters contains Antonio Giammona, the very first "boss of bosses"; New York cop Joe Petrosino, who underestimated the Sicilian mafia and paid for it with his life; and Bernard "the Tractor" Provenzano, the current boss of bosses who has been hiding in Sicily since 1963.
