More Like A Magazine Article

 


Mafia Summit: J. Edgar Hoover, the Kennedy Brothers, and the Meeting That Unmasked the Mob by Gil Reavill recounts the famous, or infamous  Mafia meeting at the home of Joseph "Joe the Barber" Barbara, in Apalachin, New York, on November 14, 1957.  This is an interesting subject, but it does not seem to lend itself to a book-length treatment.  This topic is more suited for a semi-long magazine article.   There is not enough subject matter here to warrant a book.  But if the history of the summit, and its ramifications is your area of interest, you won’t find this flawed!
