Frank Nitti

Frank The Enforcer Nitti is arguably the most glamorized gangster in history. He was an infamous Chicago wiseguy who eventually rose to command the citys premier underworld organization--The Outfit. Though he has been widely mentioned in fictional works, this is the first book to document Nittis real-life criminal career alongside his pop culture persona, with special chapters devoted to the many television shows, movies, and songs featuring Nitti. Author Ronald Humble chronicles The Enforcers beginnings in New Yorks Navy Street Boys to his position as Al Capones second-in-command and eventual leadership of the outfit, with bodies piling up along the way.
