Illustrated by 20 B/W Photos. Costello was regarded as the real Czar of the Mafia syndicate, Prime Minister of the underworld who owned New York . Uncle Frank as he was often called, was a most complex individual. Unlike many of his colleagues, he set aside guns, was friendly, outgoing and most often without a trace of menace. He could as easily mix with businessmen and powerful politicians as he could with the likes of Lucky Luciano and Al Capone. His career spanned the first three-quarters of the 20th-century, and he was a key figure in the modern history of the US's largest city. A carefully researched and documented life of Uncle Frank, from his birth into grinding poverty in Southern Italy, to his emergence as the single most powerful man in politics and organized crime in New York City. Forward by Anthony Quinn and illustrated with many photos.
