About this book
A biography novel detailing the life of American Mafia member Aladena "Jimmy the Weasel" Fratianno. It chronicles Fratianno's life from a kid in Cleveland to becoming the acting Boss of the Los Angeles crime family. Author Ovid Demaris gained the information for the book from Fraitanno himself in the early 1980s, where they spent hours recording conversations between the two. Demaris also conducted his own research and background gathering. The book was released in 1981. It was the first of two biographical books written about Fratianno, the other being Vengeance is Mine by Michael J. Zuckerman published in 1987.
