SUMMARY:The Mafia Battle For New York
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Mafia And The Battle For New York \nFrom the Godfather to the Sopranos\, from Capone to Boardwalk Empire\, America is fascinated with the Mafia. And the story of the Mafia wars for the control of New York City is among the most fascinating stories in American History. \nThe Mafia’s roots were in an extortion gang called The Black Hand. They terrorized Enrico Caruso and lured an American policeman\, Joseph Petrosino\, to his death in Italy. (Click here to read this amazing story.) \n \nAfter a series of bloody wars that dominated the headlines and provided fodder for dozens of movies\, Lucky Luciano consolidated power\, arranged for the drug trade\, and formed a national board of directors for the Mafia! Among the fascinating personalities covered in this fascinating multimedia presentation are Meyer Lanky\, Al Capone\, Frank Costello\, Nucky Thompson\, and many others – you will be amazed at how organized crime became one of the biggest businesses in America. \nPLEASE NOTE: \nCost: : $7 Members/$12 Guests Price includes lunch \n\n\n\nPrice without lunch: $4/$8

SUMMARY:Al Capone  - Master Of The Mob
DESCRIPTION:Organized crime came in with a bang – literally – with the rise of prohibition. And no city was more under the control of the mob than Chicago. This exciting look at the rise of the Chicago mob in the early days culminating with Al Capone finishes with a fascinating look at how Sam Giancana changed the Syndicate in Chicago from a group of bootlegging dogs to an international powerhouse that influenced American presidential elections and American foreign-policy. We’ll examine how ethnic neighborhoods\, Chicago city politics and the Kennedy administration all played into the tremendous influence of organized crime in Chicago. \nAl Capone was one of the most famous gangsters in American History.  Unlike many organized crime leaders\, he did little to hide his identity. He was seen at Wrigley Field chatting with star catcher Gabby Hartnett. \nGabby Hartnett Chats With Al Capone \nhosting soup kitchens for the unemployed and even appearing on the cover of Time Magazine. \nThe true story of Capone’s rise and fall is complex and unexpected. He began a hoodlum in Brooklyn\, working for Frankie Yale\, the first man to begin organizing the mob in New York. Capone moved to Chicago to assist Frankie Torrio\, second in command of the Chicago mob.  With ferocity and force\, Capone would come to head the Chicago outfit – before a meek bookkeeper and the tax laws brought him down! \n  \nGreat news!  This program is open to the public and free!  Contact the venue ahead of time to reserve a seat! \n
