Summary: History of the Cleveland Mafia
Comment: If you are from Cleveland and you are interested how the mafia started up and how it changed throughout the decades, then check this book out. I thought this was a very interesting read and the book kept my attention 99% of the time. Great details on how the mafia started in Cleveland.
Rating: 4
Summary: Excellent book!
Comment: This book was an outstanding read. I couldn't put it down. I gave it four stars simply because I felt it should have discussed the Cleveland Syndicate further. For example what about Moishe Wexler? He owned the Theatrical Grill, a great club in its day. As a born and raised Clevelander, It was very interesting to find out more about stories that I have heard since childhood. I would recommend this book, and in fact I am planning on putting it on the reading list for my criminology classes at Kent State.
Rating: 3
Summary: Very readable
Comment: This book is very readable, informative and interesting. It does lack, however, a more in-depth study of Cleveland's organized crime and the historical information on Sicily is not completely correct. Otherwise, I do recommend it.
