My Father, My Don : A Son's Journey from Organized Crime to Sobriety

Moving back and forth in time from the 1800s to the present day, My Father, My Don: A Son's Journey from Organized Crime to Sobriety tells the saga of the Napoli Family and takes its reader on a true-life journey, detailing one family's involvement in American organized crime.

As told through the eyes of Anthony "Tony Nap" Napoli, the book follows the story of his father, James "Jimmy Nap" Napoli, who grew up in New York at the turn of the century and who ascended through the ranks of the Mafia to become one of the most powerful and respected mob bosses of all time.

Jimmy Nap's career took him from street-level crime to an assassination attempt on Elliot Ness; from a relationship with Cuban strongman Fulgencio Batista to becoming a Mob Kingpin who ruled over the largest gambling empire in America for almost 40 years.

Jimmy Nap's sphere of influence extended to many businesses and industries, including professional boxing, casinos, and entertainment.
