John Gotti: The Teflon Don of the Gambino Crime Family

2020

Synopsis

Gotti had a harsh but simple rule in dealing with anyone who challenged his authority. He had them killed. He was a member of the Gambino crime family but even had his own boss, Paul Castellano, murdered to rise to the top. There was no criminal activity that he was not a part of and under his leadership, the crime family became the richest among all other crime families.

Despite violating all standards of being an upright citizen, people loved him because of his demeanour and the way he presented himself. But who was he as a person and how did he achieve his position?

Gotti was brought down by law enforcement officials after a lifetime of pursuit. He was convicted, imprisoned, and died a quiet death in his prison cell. During his lifetime, he had reached an almost mythical figure, a darling of the crowds, and a nightmare for the legal system. This book will grant you unique access to his life and how he strategically reached the echelon of his profession.
