Mafia Summit
The Meeting That Unmasked the Mob
Author:
Gil Reavill
Narrator:
Keith Szarabajka
In a small village in New York, mob bosses from all over the country—Vito Genovese, Carlo Gambino, Joe Bonanno, Joe Profaci, Cuba boss Santo Trafficante, Jr., and Paul Castellano—were nabbed by Sergeant Edgar D. Croswell as they gathered to sort out a bloody war of succession. For years FBI director J. Edgar Hoover had adamantly denied the existence of the Mafia, but Robert Kennedy immediately recognized the shattering importance of the Apalachin summit. Appointed attorney general after his brother became president, Robert embarked on a campaign to break the spine of the mob, engaging in a furious turf battle with the powerful Hoover.
