Review: Scary History of Underground Tampa - I've been a fan of old-time gangsters long before the movie 'The Godfather" came out. Being from South Tampa I know that old time Mafia types had some beautiful, yet very secluded homes and mansions in our area. Everybody knew where they lived but nobody really knew anything about them. As teenagers, we all knew not to speed through their areas or do anything that might get their attention. We did know that after Chicago and New York, little sun-baked Tampa had the third most powerful Mafia families - BUT, they were never flashy - no big cars, no sharkskin suits (who would wear one in Tampa anyway? Very interesting reading. Now Tampa has some very strong black super-gangs and Cuban-American cartels.
Review: Informative. Well researched. A breezy, insightful read. - Informative. Well researched. Some elements appear a tad dated. Other than that, a breezy, insightful read. I picked it up for research on a current screenplay I'm working on. A good intro - well done!

### ⭐⭐⭐ A fair book about the Trafficantes, but not deep
*by D***W on July 15, 2024*

I grew up in Tampa, and went to high school with close and distant members of the Trafficante family (who were not involved in Santo's 'business') and the book is accurate but not very deep. Accurate as to street names and locations. This is a quick read. But there are other books about Tampa, the Mafia, the Trafficantes and related organized people that I'd recommend first before reading this one.
