Although this book may give insight to every single gang and organized crime unit in the world, it is the most boring read ever. It is so detailed that if you're trying to get an overall view of organized crime, then you'll just be left frustrated. After reading this book I am overwhelmed and all the information is running together.

I am an organized crime buff and have read virtually every book on the subject that i can find. This book is one stop shopping! It provides a comprehensive history of all organized crime groups currently operating in the United States. I would recommend this book for anyone with an interest in the subject.

My Organized Crimes class in college used this book and I found it very helpful. It is not the kind of book you just sit down and read for fun, but one that you can gain a vast amount of knowledge from. It is very detailed and well researched. I was also lucky enough to have Dr. Britz teaching my class. The combination of her lectures and the information in the textbook was outstanding.
