Book Description

March 23, 2008
Carlo Gambino - Crime Boss Don Carlo is the biography of Carlo Gambino, a Mafioso who became boss of the Gambino crime family that still bears his name today. Gambino was known for being low-key and secretive and unlike many modern mafiosi, Gambino served relatively little time in prison. Gambino began carrying out murder orders for new Mob bosses in his teens. In 1921, at the age of 19, he became a "made man", and was inducted to La Cosa Nostra. Gambino was seen at the Desert Inn in Las Vegas on August 2, 1967, where he is suppose to have met Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop, who all are known as "The Rat Pack". In his final years, Gambino was seen less and less in public, deceiving both the public and law enforcement into thinking he had less control, although this was not the case. Carlo Gambino - Crime Boss Don Carlo is highly recommended for those interested in reading more about this key crime boss of the Gambino family.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a joke, September 12, 2008
This review is from: Carlo Gambino - Crime Boss Don Carlo (Biography) (Paperback)
How ironic...a book about a mafia Don that's a complete rip off. A 35 page joke of a book with large print and writing that a junior high student would be ashamed of. You would learn more about the subject reading pizza boxes in the Bronx. Amazon....I didn't think you would sink so low as to actually charge $9 for this mess....frankly I didn't think you would charge at all. Don Carlos would be proud....

This review is from: Carlo Gambino - Crime Boss Don Carlo (Biography) (Paperback)
Like I said I only gave it one star because I couldn't give it zero. What a ripoff. 50 pages of big giant type with big gaps between the paragraphs and 2 of the pages aren't even text. I'm sending it back for a refund which I better get or I'm never buying another book from you. You people should know better than to sell an item like this.
