Great ReadBy Jack LawlerAs a life long area resident, I followed the trials when they were going on. In The Last Gangster, George Anastasia details the goings on of one of the most dysfunctional crime families. Good pace and details without bogging down on minutiae.

"It's over. You'd have to be Ray Charles not to see it." mdash;former capo Ron Previte, on the mob today As a cop, Ron Previte was corrupt. As a mobster he was brutal. And in his final role, as a confidential to the FBI, Previte was deadly. The Last Gangster is his storymdash;the story of the last days of the Philadelphia Mob, and of the clash of generations that brought it down once and for all. For 35 years Ron Previte roamed the underworld. A sixndash;foot, 300ndash;pound capo in the Philadelphiandash;South Jersey , he ran every mob scam and gambit from drug trafficking and prostitution to the extortion of millions from Atlantic City. In his own words, "Every day was a different felony." By the 1990s, Previte, an oldndash;school workhorse, found himself answering to younger mob bosses like "Skinny Joe" Merlino, who seemed increasingly spoiled, cocky, and careless. Convinced that the honor of the "business" was gone, he became the FBI's secret weapon in an intense and highly personalized war on the Philadelphia mob. Operating with the same guile, wit, and stonendash;cold bravado that had made him a force in the underworldmdash;and armed with only a wiretap secured to his crotchmdash;Previte recorded it all; the murder, the mayhem, and even the story of mob boss Ralph Natale's affair with his youngest daughter's best friend. Previte and his FBI cronies eventually prevailed, securing the convictions of his nemeses, "Skinny Joey" Merlino and Ralph Natale.
