I've read that book by Jeffrey Robbinson.

Lots of information in it, also about LCN.
It can be ordered at:


The Merger

Maybe i'll put a list of interesting "real live" books on this board.

However, my personal opinion:

I'll guess that the Mafiya will grow bigger and stronger then LCN. It won't take them so much time as our Sicilian friends needed. They have good examples.
