Description
A man of singular influence in the American underworld, Johnny Rosselli's career spanned half a century. From bootlegging in the Twenties to the modern era of organised crime as a dominant corporate power, his influence was profound. Rosselli's rise to prominence was marked by his ability to navigate both sides of the law, befriending studio bosses and seducing their biggest stars, including Marilyn Monroe. He also played a key role in the development of Las Vegas, becoming its behind-the-scenes boss and enjoying the Rat Pack night life with Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. This book takes you inside American organised crime at the highest level, revealing a story of extreme violence and superstar glamour. Based on years of research, it offers an utterly compelling and richly detailed account of Rosselli's life and times.
