Sinopse
Características

Largely forgotten now, Frankie Yale was an influential New York mobster of the early 20th century whose proteges included future leaders of New Yorks five Mafia families and Chicagos outfit. His influence extended to Chicago, where he personally committed two of the citys most notorious underworld assassinations and waged a five-year war to wrest control of Brooklyns docks from Irish rivals. His murder marked New York Citys first use of a Tommy gun in gangland warfare, the same weapon used in Chicagos St. Valentines Day massacre seven months later. Yales passing destabilized Gothams Mafia, paving the way for an upheaval that modified and modernized the structure of American syndicated crime for the next six decades. Despite Yales prominence during his life, this is the first biography to survey his life and career.
