    A Good Anthropological Description of a True Sub-Culture
  

*by L***Z on Reviewed in the United States on August 27, 2018*

This is one of my favorite books, but not because I am a "fan" of the mafia. I've seen maybe two or three of the famous films, and maybe 2 whole episodes of the Sopranos.No, I like this book because its resemblance to a work of anthropology. Though Pistone is clear that he doesn't condone the mafia's activities (he infiltrated the culture to try to bring it down), he also gives an excellent, objective account of the American Mafia AS A CULTURE. He writes in the Introduction "Wiseguys exist in a bizarre parallel universe, a world where avarice and violence and corruption are the norm....Wiseguys resemble us in many ways, but make no mistake: they might as well be from another planet, so alien and abnormal are their thoughts and habits."

    AMAZON IS HORRIBLE WHEN IT COMES TO BOOKS.
  

*by D***K on Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2019*

I love books, but I'm 100% certain that everyone at Amazon hates them. My 1 star isn't for the book--I just got it and haven't even started it yet--it's for this being literally every book I've bought from Amazon arriving damaged. I bought this book new, and it arrived with the entire upper right corner damaged. Amazon is probably the worst thing to ever happen to the publishing industry, or at least to the book-buying public. I've actually asked my wife to forbid me from ever buying another book from Amazon just so I don't have to deal with this again.

    Draw A Bye on This Book
  

*by B***M on Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2020*

I enjoyed the first two books on Donnie Branco  but this one didn't really add anything to what we already didn't know from the first two.  Wise guys are anything but wise.  They are merely thugs leading a very boring existence.  Get up around nine o'clock, go to the social club to play cards, and discuss the latest heist they are planning.  Maybe go home for a spell and then out on the town at night.  Repeat the same routine over and over again.  Their life will usually end in an early grave or, if they are lucky, in a prison cell.  Thugs acting tough with their limited vocabulary punctuated with profanities.  The book contains a CD of conversations between Donnie Brasco and Lefty Ruggiero in which  Lefty demonstrates his ignorance of the English language.
