Summary:
"The
New
England
Mafia was a hugely powerful organization that survived by using violence to ruthlessly crush anyone that threatened it, or
its
lucrative gambling, loansharking, bootlegging and other enterprises and psychopathic strongman Joseph 'The Animal' Barboza was one of the
most
feared
mob
enforcers of all time, killing as many as thirty people for business and pleasure. From information based on newly declassified documents and the use of underworld sources,
Boston
Mob
spans the gutters and alleyways of East
Boston
, Providence and Charlestown to the halls of Congress in Washington D.C. and
Boston
's Beacon Hill.
Its
players include governors and mayors, and the Mafia Commission of
New
York City. From the tragic legacy of the Kennedy family to the Winter Hill-Charlestown feud, the
fall
of the
New
England
Mafia and the
rise
of Whitey Bulger,
Boston
Mob
is a saga of treachery, murder, greed, and the survival of ruthless men pitted against legal systems and police forces."--From publisher.
