The First Family
Terror, Extortion and the Birth of the American Mafia
Before Al. Capone and Lucky Luciano, there was the one-fingered, cunning Giuseppe Morello and his murderous coterie of brothers. Had it not been for Morello, the world may never have heard of 'men of honour', the code of omerta or Mafia wars. This explosive book tells the story of the first family of New York, and how this extended close-knit clan of recketeers and murderers left the backwaters of Sicily to successfully establish themselves as the founding godfathers of the New World.
