Running Press Book Publishers, 2007. First edition. Hardcover. First edition/ printing. Fine in fine dust jacket. Hardcover. 336 pp. wth index. Illustrated with photos. "Donnie Brasco" author Joe Pistone, who as an undercover FBI agent in the 1970s infiltrated New York's Bonanno crime family, here sequels his 1988 best seller "Donnie Brasco: My Undercover Life in the Mafia" (basis for one of the great mob movies of all time starring Johnny Depp and Al Pacino). Pistone revisits the operation with avengeance, offering for the first time chilling eyewitness accounts of the brutality carried out by gangsters such as :Sonny Black" Napolitano, Lefty "Guns" Ruggiero, Tony Mira, and the rest of the Bonanno crew. Here, however, nearly three decades after the initial events, he also puts the operation into historical perspective, detailing the timeline of convictions, from the Bonanno trial, the Mafia commission trial, the Pizza connection, and more. Pistone anlyzes the bloody civil war that defined the Mafia from 1981 through 2006 with the rise of new bosses like Joh Gotti mand Gaspipe Casso. He also recounts his life after the operation, his time on the film set with Pacino and Depp, and his later undercover work. Fine / fine. Item #E24666
