I don't think it can be doubted that the Last Testament book is really Luciano's own testimony, however the common belief is he himself wasn't truthful with the author. It should be noted that all those who criticized the Last Testament book, in their own books write about the Night Of The Vespucci, as if it actually happened. It's now common fact that Luciano didnt have a bunch of mustache petes in 15 states murdered all within a few hours. The Last Testament was the only book at the time that denied it happening in the first place.

It's possible Luciano was directly involved with Marazano's murder. But I personally doubt it and think the Murder Inc. Jew squad theory, is a lot closer to reality than people think.


It wasn't the first. Joseph Albini in his book "The American Mafia" said it earlier. Some of the exact words used in this section of "The Last Testament" came from books published by Hank Messick in the late 1960s and early 1970s. How does a book where Lucky Luciano is supposedly giving his confession before he died in 1962 quote books that were published years after he died?
