Overview

The Silent Don exposes the life and ruthless times of one of America's most powerful and feared mob bosses. With a criminal empire that stretched from the Gulf Coast throughout the Caribbean, Trafficante was linked to drug trafficking, plots to kill Fidel Castro, and the assassination of JFK. Scott M. Deitche scoured court records, law-enforcement reports, newspaper accounts, and conducted dozens of interviews to find the compelling story of this enigmatic Mafioso don.

    Gotta Love the Mob!

    I'm not quite finished with this book yet but I found it very well written. Since I live in Tampa and know many of the names listed in this book, I also found it enlightening and provocative. I love good mob books and stories about La Cosa Nostra so this was a no brainer for me. Great book!
