The Official Book of Mob Humor                           by Malcolm Kushner

​Author Malcolm Kushner introduces us to The Official Book of Mob Humor:
More than a joke book: Whether it's the Mafia, Russian Mob, Mexican Mob, or Yakusa, organized criminals have one thing in common; they are no laughing matter—until now. First time, all their wit, gaffes, and goof-ups are here.

"When the judge threw the book at me, I wish it had been The Official Book of Mob Humor."
— Louis Ferrante, former Gambino family associate and author of Mob Rules

"A book for all Mafia lovers. During my six years as an undercover FBI agent in the mob, I had many a laugh at the humor of gangsters. A must read."
— Joe Pistone aka Donnie Brasco

"The Official Book of Mob Humor has hilarious true stories about wise-guys and gangsters, plus lots of other funny stuff. I really got a kick out of it."
— Oscar Goodman, Las Vegas Mayor 1999-2011, former defense attorney for notorious U.S. crime figures

​This is not just a book about mob jokes and riddles. It is far more than that. It is chock full of trivia and funny lines from mob movies spanning over 80 years. It has newspaper headlines that will make you laugh. It has stories that you won’t believe. It has funny quotes from mobsters, about mobsters, and movie mobsters.
I had quite a few laughs, more smiles than I can count, and a number of punny groans. I enjoyed it immensely! There is no need for omerta with this book.
I give this book 4.5 stars out of 5! Thank you, Malcom and crew, for a fun ride with a happy ending. I ate the cannoli!

I am glad that you like the book review. I would be happy to accept the book, flying has been an important part of my dad's life for a long time. Military, commercial, and civil.
