About this product

Product Information

Here celebrated national writer Ted Schwarz brings it home and focuses on Cleveland's extensive involvement in the mafia. With an irresistible writing style and a gift for storytelling, Schwarz chronicles the lives of Cleveland mobsters such as Moe Dalitz and their power, not just in Cleveland but on a national scale. In this book that touches on every essential bit of Cleveland mob history, Schwarz shows how the Cleveland area became a center for sophisticated (albeit illegal) nightclub entertainment with places such as the Mounds Club, the Pettibone, the Harvard Club, and the Theatrical. It tells of Meyer Lansky quietly established a post-Prohibition sugar operation in Cleveland and how the Teamsters Union Pension Fund became a resource for illicit investments including in Las Vegas. It covers the Kefauver Organized Crime Hearings and the men who learned how to create irresistible entertainment attractions in the area that made them illegal, then applied that knowledge to the anything goes world of the infant Las Vegas Strip. Dalitz, a man who murdered as part of business, was an honored elder in Las Vegas at the time of his death.
