	Mafia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The main split in the Sicilian Mafia at present is between those bosses who have been convicted and are now in jail, chiefly Salvatore 'Toto' Riina and Leoluca Bagarella, the capo di tutti capi from 1993 to 1995, and those such as Bernardo Provenzano, who are on the run, or who have not been indicted.
		Mafia power peaked in the United States in the mid-20th century, until a series of FBI investigations in the 1970s and 1980s somewhat curtailed the Mafia's influence.
		In the United States, the Mafia began a steep decline in the late-1970s and early 1980s due in part to laws such as the RICO Act, which made it a crime to belong to an organization that performed illegal acts, and to programs such as the witness protection program.

		Maranzano, hearing of Masseria's death, quickly became the number one boss in all of New York, but his plans were to become the Boss of all Bosses, the "Capo di tutti Capi." He called for a meeting of all the heads of families across the country to New York.

		It can be argued that Masseria definitely had the better talent on his side, but Maranzano was younger and smarter than Masseria and knew what it would take to win the war, he had to do two things: first win over Luciano who was Masseria's number one man; second would be to kill Masseria.

		Fredo Corleone, hapless Mafia scion, emerges here as a more central, vigorous and conflicted character than in The Godfather or even the films, as do Tom Hagen (the Corleones' adopted son and erstwhile consigliere) and Johnny Fontane, Puzo's dig at Frank Sinatra.
		For example, I found the subplot about Francesca, Sonny Corleone's daughter, to be more or less a distraction and nothing more, albeit well-written and at times interesting in its own right.
