Publisher's Summary
In the 10th audiobook in the multimillion-selling Killing series, Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard take on their most controversial subject yet: The Mob.
Killing the Mob is the 10th audiobook in Bill O'Reilly's number-one New York Times best-selling series of popular narrative histories, with sales of nearly 18 million copies worldwide, and over 320 weeks on the New York Times best-seller list.
O’Reilly and co-author Martin Dugard trace the brutal history of 20th-century organized crime in the United States, and expertly plumb the history of this nation’s most notorious serial robbers, conmen, murderers, and especially, mob family bosses. Covering the period from the 1930s to the 1980s, O’Reilly and Dugard trace the prohibition-busting bank robbers of the Depression Era, such as John Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde, Pretty Boy Floyd, and Baby-Face Nelson. In addition, the authors highlight the creation of the Mafia Commission, the power struggles within the “Five Families”, the growth of the FBI under J. Edgar Hoover, the mob battles to control Cuba, Las Vegas, and Hollywood, as well as the personal war between the US Attorney General Bobby Kennedy and legendary Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa.
O’Reilly and Dugard turn these legendary criminals and their true-life escapades into a listen that rivals the most riveting crime novel. With Killing the Mob, their hit series is primed for its greatest success yet.

Excellent Read
I wasn’t sure what to expect while looking at purchasing this book. I’m glad I did, it’s amazing how ruthless the mob were. Loyalty only to themselves. If you’re looking into the history of crime and this you will enjoy

Depressingly brilliant exposure of corruption
This was an eye-opener! I’d heard bits and pieces related to this history but had no idea how real it was. The level of corroboration and research is compelling and laudable. It is well-worthwhile having your eyes opened and to see the depravity and moral bankruptcy of organised crime and the collusion from too many in authority. The courage and integrity of some leaders is commendable
A great book!
