DESCRIPTION:
It proves that there is truth to the expression, “it’s the quiet ones you have to watch.”. You’ll meet the Rizzutos, a powerful family with connections to the legendary Five Families of the American Mafia. Then there’s the Cotroni family formed by Vic “the Egg” Cotroni, an ex-wrestler with ties to the Ndrangheta. And just wait until you get to Toronto!Prepare to be shocked by the true story of organized crime in Canada. It’s no secret that organized crime is everywhere. Think again. This book delves into the often ignored but nevertheless bloody world of Canadian mobs. From Japan and Italy to Israel and Mexico, there seems to be no place on earth where an organized crime family doesn’t exist. You may think that one of the few safe places left is friendly, welcoming Canada, which many believe is so safe that people there always leave their doors unlocked. You’ll also learn about their connections to the blood-soaked Quebec Biker War, where the Hell’s Angels and the Rock Machine battled for 17 years and claimed 150 lives
Just Horrid. Bad Writing and Full of Mistakes. Amazon Customer I have been an avid Italian mafia historian n mob watcher for more than 25 years n have more than 300 books concerning the Italian mafia n Organized Crime in my own personal library n even more documents, charts n what-not regarding Italian mafia history related to Italy, America, Canada, Australia n Europe n. the Dutchwill said Canadian Mafia. the Canadian mafia in short. This book is well written and has new facts from the Mafia from the American and Canadian side.Sometimes a little boring, but still a nice read. ian said waste of money. not very well written and I did notice several spelling mistakes including names of some of the people (spelled the Cuntrera family name "Cuntera"several times. The book was a disappointment.
