    Secret Societies – A Graphic History of Organised Crime


    same old 2020 ISBN 9781527268074 Acqn 31057
    Pb 21x30cm 176pp col ills £35

    Much is popularized of the Mafia in film, literature, music and urban legend. Some stories are
    inspired by and respectful of facts, but many are presented via a creative lens distorting how
    organized crime began. References are often made to criminal activity in the infamous Prohibition
    Era, but few stories cover the preceding years. This new book however examines the early
    development of the Sicilian-American criminal network through the rise and fall of the first US
    Mafia boss of bosses Giuseppe Morello and his powerful brother-in-law Ignazio Lupo. This
    meticulously illustrated volume of Secret Societies shines a light on this fascinating time of
    American history and organized crime. It does so through research from primary sources, richly
    illuminating the period of the 1890s-1920s using photos, documents, contemporary articles and
    illustrations. Through a combination of period photographs, government records, news clippings,
    graphic design and fully annotated text, Secret Societies permits the reader to witness the
    important moments and trends in the development of Sicilian-American organized crime in the
    United States. A visual, photographic & design feast.
