Publisher's Summary

The true story behind the hit film Casino from an "enforcer" who lived it.

Tony Spilotro was the Mob's man in Las Vegas. A feared enforcer, the bosses knew Tony would do whatever it took to protect their interests. The "Little Guy" built a criminal empire that was the envy of mobsters across the country, and his childhood pal, Frank Cullotta, helped him do it. But Tony's quest for power and lack of self-control with women cost the Mob its control of Vegas; and Tony paid for it with his life.

"I was a little nervous before my first meeting with former mobster Frank Cullotta. It turned out we had a pleasant conversation that ended with an agreement for me to write his book. As I drove home, I realized I had made a deal with a career thief and killer on a handshake. What was I thinking?" (Dennis N. Griffin, author of Surviving the Mob)

Terrible Narration for Classic Mob Story

Horrible narration for a guy telling the story of horrific murders and insane plot twists
Casino is 1 of my favorite mob movies and Pesci's character always intrigued me! This book about the real life Nicky Santora is unfortunately read by a guy more suited to be reciting Bible passages instead of sensational Crimes and horrific murders
NARRATOR KILLS THE STORY!!!!!
