Pages are clean and unmarked and in excellent condition. "A Cuban version of The Godfather" Deadline Hollywood A gripping tale of gangsters. Drugs. Violence. Sex and murder. By the mid-1980s the American underworld was a vicious melting pot of powerful criminal tribes. The most feared was the Cuban mob. This organisation of exiles ruthlessly led by a kingppin named "battle" was so cold-blooded it was known on both sides of the law as "The Corporation". Drawing on first-hand accounts and deep research and with the blistering prose that established him as "America's top chronicler of organised crime" T.J. English's The Corporation reveals how a generation of Cuban refugees racketeers corrupt cops hitmen and their families got caught up in a very American saga of empire building criminal enterprise and revolution. Now to be adapted into a film with Benicio Del Toro to star. PRAISE FOR THE CORPORATION "Fascinating reading for true-crime buffs." Kirkus Review "It's a gripping blood-soaked story rich in drama and suspense; if it were a novel you might expect to see Don Winslow's name attached to it. Fans of true crime especially those with a hankering for epic-sized stories should flock to this book." Booklist "A first-rate saga of crime and corruption that is further testament to the author's reputation among the nation's most accomplished writers."

Takaki Ronald T.
Violence in the Black Imagination: Essays and Documents
Capricorn Books 1972. Book. Very Good. Trade Paperback. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-good clean condition. NO remainder marks or clippings. Covers show light wear NO tears. Tight spine clean pages. Pages show tanning. 348 pages. NO writing or tears inside book. 1992 has been an explosive year for racial relations in the United States--from the reactions to the Rodney King verdict to debate about Malcolm X and the film portrayal of his role in American history. What relations do the recent events in Los Angeles have to the Watts Riots in 1965 Violence in the Black Imagination shows that these recent events force us to understand the history of racism in America and its legacy of antagonism and violence. Ronald T. Takaki presents three short novels of major African-American leaders in the nineteenth century: Frederick Douglass the leading black abolitionist; Martin Delany the father of black nationalism; and William Wells Brown a pioneer of the black novel. The novels are accompanied by substantive essays which provide both biographical information on the author and explore the common theme of their work--the issue of black revolutionary violence in antebellum America. The work includes a new preface which examines the 1992 South Central Los Angeles racial explosion in relationship to Martin Luther King Jr. Malcolm X and the 1965 Watts Riot.

The Mafia - the most discussedleast understood subject in America - is a syndicate of approximately 5000 men belonging to twenty-four separate "families" located in major cities in every region of the United States.Since the Prohibition erait has specialised in providing those illegal commodities whichin Lippmann's wordshuman appetites crave.It is a risky business at best.Sidewalks have been littered with bodies because of "misunderstandings" between mafiosi.Yetsince the survivors in Mafia society are most often as quiet as the corpsesthere has never been a factual account of the Mafia world from the inside:what their homes look likewhat they say to their wiveswhat they tell their children about themselveswhat their children come to know without being told.In this monumental work - packed with fascinatingintimate details and brilliant reporting and written in the style of a novel - Talese portrays the secret society as they - and he - have lived it in the six years he travelled with the individuals who have so dominated the crime charts of crime-busting senators.The book begins on a rainy Tuesday night in October 1964 whenon Park Avenue in New Yorkthe famous Mafia chieftain Joseph Bonnano - whose father in sicily was a "Man of respect" and whose college-educated son was his top lieutenant - was kidnapped by two mobsters and reported by the police as dead on the following morning.Eighteen months and several corpses later Joseph Bonnano reappeared as strangely as he had disappearedsetting off a Mafia feud that became to be known as the Banana War. Talese covers the Banana War in intimate detail.The reader gets extraordinary glimpses of men on the runof "hits" and "misses" andlater the wives and children and other members of a society that readers of The Godfather know in fictional terms.Talese travelled to western Sicily to live in Mafia mountain villages in order to trace the origin of his characters.His book focuses on the Bonanno family - three generations of it.Woven into the tale are the big dons of the twentieth century - Vito Genovese Lucky Luciano Joseph Proafci dozens more.For once the mafiosi are revealed not as merely names in headlines or on crime charts or as wooden figures in books written by retired district attorneys and detectives.In this book the men are revealed in human terms.This is the first book in which the Mafia wives are described in depththeir daily routines depicted from kitchen to supermarketfrom beauty parlours to bridge parties.And the childrentooare poignantly portrayed in this book.
