The novel The Godfather (1969) and the movie of the same name (1972) entrenched the myth of the Mafiosi as valiant knights, men of honor, and defenders of the traditional concept of family. As a result of this movie and other popular portrayals, the image of mobsters as “men of honor and tradition” has become iconic throughout America. Yet the truth of the matter belies this more noble image. The Mafia is a ruthless organization. Their concept of family is a twisted one. But viewed through the lens of popular culture, it is often difficult to separate the fiction from the reality. Made Men demystifies this image by dismantling the code of honor that Mafiosi live by, including its attendant symbols, rituals, and the lifestyle that it demands. Since the end of World War II, the Mafia in Italy and America has undergone major changes, which are charted by the authors through the present day. Nicaso and Danesi also consider all kinds of related organizations, not only the Italian ones, including the Yakuza, the Triads, and the Russian Mafia. The authors look at organized criminal culture in general, attempting to explain why its symbols, rituals, and practices continue to draw people in, both as literal members, or as consumers of the pop culture that glorifies them. This story traces and decodes the origins, history and success of the mafia in the U.S., bringing a better, and more accurate understanding of this ultimately brutal, violent, and corrupting “family business.” It is a story that has rarely been told in this way, but which is believed, nonetheless, important to tell.

Peter J. DeVico's latest book, The Mafia Made Easy: The Anatomy and Culture Of La Cosa Nostra is perhaps the best endorsement for the adage, 'write about what you know.' DeVico examines the deadly, furtive world of organized crime while offering the reader a comprehensive but uncomplicated portrayal of the American Mafia. He renders an authentic account of how La Cosa Nostra evolved: Its origin and organizational structure, its national scope during the 'golden age, ' the driving political forces that motivate it, how it earns a living, its bizarre rituals, and popular myths about honor, respect and the code of silence. The Mafia Made Easy: The Anatomy and Culture of La Cosa Nostra makes a powerful statement, and is a MUST for true-crime aficionados

“Amazing book … be sure to purchase Mafia Made!” –The Hype Magazine “The first time I saw a man brutally beaten and begging for his life, I was 5 years old. Weeks later, I found out he’d been shot in the head, stabbed eleven times, and nearly decapitated. He was like an uncle to me…” Growing up in Miami in the 1980s, Anthony Caucci learned early on that things weren’t always what they seemed. Some of his earliest memories were doing the rounds of local Mob bars with his father, collecting tips from wise guys, keeping track of the sports bets, and learning how the Mafia operated. It didn’t take long before Caucci was ready to step out on his own—and there was plenty of opportunity in the fast-paced, cocaine-fueled underworld of South Florida’s organized crime families. Caucci quickly established himself as one of the savviest players in the world’s most dangerous game. Before he could legally buy a drink, he was doing business with the Colombian Cartel, smuggling cocaine into the United States and building his own empire, all while outwitting the police, working his connections with the Mafia, and making more money than he could spend. When he got too big, the feds vowed to bring him down, no matter what it took. They leaned on his friends and family, followed him day and night, and broke any law that stood in their way. But with a cool head and powerful contacts, Caucci stayed just one step ahead. After yet another narrow escape—this time with 50 kilos in his trunk—Caucci knew his time was up…and you’ll never believe what he did.

For years, the DeCavalcantes, the most powerful Mob family in Jersey, labored in the shadows of the more famous families in New York—the likes of the Gambinos and the Columbos. Dismissed by the big-city capos, the DeCavalcantes finally came into their own when they found their lives mirrored in the television hit, The Sopranos. Overnight it legitimized the made men of the Garden State. Now they were a familia to be reckoned with. Unfortunately with high profile came high risk. As member turned against member, as trusted friend turned terrified informant, the FBI put the brakes on the DeCavalcante’s explosive ride into infamy, hastening a fall from honor that would become as infamous as their notorious ascension into the annals of organized crime. Based on more than 1,000 hours of secretly recorded conversations, Made Men delivers for the first time, the unprecedented and completely uncensored behind-the-scenes truth of a historically clandestine world—of violent life and sudden death inside and outside the mob, told by the very men who made it.
