I just picked up "The Complete Idiot's guide to the Mafia" by Jerry Capechi. Anyone know any other books like this that they would recommend?
You know, we always called each other goodfellas. Like, you'd say to somebody: "You're gonna like this guy; he's all right. He's a goodfella. He's one of us." You understand? We were goodfellas, wiseguys.

I (still) haven't read a book on real life Mafia; my local best bookstore has nothing but garbage on the Kray twins et al--nothing at all on the Mafia really. They do have "Mafia: The First Hundred Years," which I desperately want to read, but it's a bit to expensive. I suggest you do a search, mate, for a recent post about good books to read.  Mick

Hey, Capo, you can pick up the book I had, "The Complete Idiot's guide to the mafia", online, I got mine for about ten dollars. I can't remember the site but I'll try to find it.
