Fred Gardaphé, From Wiseguys to Wise Men: The Gangster and Italian American Masculinities- $22.00 (List price $33.00), (Paperback). Since the gangster’s earliest appearance in American cinema, there has been regular association between the gangster figure and the Italian/American male. Perhaps no literary or cinematic figure has had such a profound effect on the development of an ethnic stereotype. This book explores the gangster as embodying the traits that the dominant American culture represses and explains why Americans are so obsessed with it.
