Roemer, Jr., the six~foot, two~inch former marine and four~time boxing champ at Notre Dame~a man who is truly "tough as nails" ~who inspired a genuine fear in the men of La Cosa Nostra. Roemer's near~legendary career in the FBI spanned three decades and ushered in the modern era of FBI persecution of criminal organizations. Considered the most decorated agent in the history of the FBI, he was the acknowledged "nemesis" of the Chicago mob and is today one of the world's foremost hands~on experts on organized crime. In The Enforcer: Spilotro~ The Chicago Mob's Man Over Las Vegas, Roemer tells from his own first~hand experience the story of Tony "The Ant" Spilotro, a street~smart punk who rose from a mob hit man in the early Sixties to become the Chicago mob's main man in Las Vegas until 1986, when he was executed, mob style, on the eve of his trial for murder, extortion and racketeering. What might have remained a silent chapter in the history of the American Mafia is intimately narrated in The Enforcer by one of America's premier law~enforcement officials. Along the way, William F. Roemer draws a portrait of such gangster legends as Tony Accardo, "Mad Sam" DeStefano (Spilotro's mentor), Sam Giancana, Meyer Lansky and Bugsy Siegel. The Enforcer is the most revealing, in~depth look at organized crime to date, centering on a key figure in the Chicago crime family who, at the height of his power, sat astride the unrivaled prize of Las Vegas~and whose every move grew to take on national significance. No one is better able to tell the complete story than William F. Roemer, Jr. N° de réf. du vendeur 4302601
