Description

A true crime Mafia classic, this homicide hall of fame is loaded with thrilling, graphically detailed accounts of the greatest outlandish and brazen executions only the Mob would ever dare to pull off.

No one will ever truly know how many gangland executions the Mob has taken out over the years. But for all the wise guys buried in obscurity, the Mafia's sordid history shines bright with this rogues gallery of celebrated, star-making murders, including:

*Joey Gallo, killed in Umberto's Clam House, Little Italy, 1975.

*Abe Reles, the Murder, Inc. stool pigeon who was tossed out of a hotel window in Coney Island in 1941.

*Albert Anastasia, cut down in a barber's chair in 1957.

*Carmine Galante, killed in a hail of bullets as he finished lunch in a Brooklyn restaurant in 1977.

*Joe "The Boss" Masseria, whacked in a Coney Island restaurant in 1933.

*Big Paul Castellano, gunned down in front of Sparks Steak House in 1985.
