Borgata: de start van een imperium: De geschiedenis van de Amerikaanse maffiaHet verhaal van de Amerikaanse maffia begint op Sicili. Na het einde van het feodalisme in Itali in de negentiende eeuw begonnen daar plaatselijke bewoners op te staan om de vrijgekomen machtsposities in hun gemeenschap in te nemen. Zo ontstond een structuur van invloedrijke Siciliaanse familieclans die hun eigen regels en gebruiken ontwikkelden. Siciliaanse immigranten namen hun levenswijze van eer, vendetta en zwijgplicht mee naar Amerika en vormden

Het verhaal van de Amerikaanse maffia begint op Sicilië. Na het einde van het feodalisme in Italië in de negentiende eeuw begonnen daar plaatselijke bewoners op te staan om de vrijgekomen machtsposities in hun gemeenschap in te nemen. Zo ontstond een structuur van invloedrijke Siciliaanse familieclans die hun eigen regels en gebruiken ontwikkelden. Siciliaanse immigranten namen hun levenswijze van eer, vendetta en zwijgplicht mee naar Amerika en vormden daar hun eigen clans: borgata’s.

In Borgata: de start van een imperium vertelt voormalig maffialid Louis Ferrante de ontstaansgeschiede nis van de Amerikaanse maffia. Op basis van jarenlang onderzoek en zijn eigen ervaringen binnen de New Yorkse maffiafamilie Gambino, onthult hij waarom dit geheime genootschap binnen de Siciliaanse gemeenschap kon ontstaan en hoe het in de twintigste eeuw tot alle lagen van de Amerikaanse samenleving is doorgedrongen. In dit eerste deel verdiept Ferrante zich in de diepe sociale, economische en politieke wortels van Sicilië en reconstrueert hij de stormachtige opkomst van de maffia in de Verenigde Staten en van beruchte maffialeden als Lucky Luciano, Vito Genovese en Meyer Lansky.

Louis Ferrante is een voormalig maffialid en zat acht jaar in de gevangenis. Sinds zijn vrijlating schreef hij meerdere succesvolle boeken en daarnaast is hij de presentator van het tv-programma Inside the Gangsters Code, waarvoor hij verschillende prijzen en nominaties ontving.

One of my Favorite Blouses!
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large, Color: Navy Blue, Size: Large
This is the perfect top when you want to have a little dressier look than a t shirt, but you still are dressing casual or you could even dress it up because the material is just so nice. . I bought my usual size which is large. It’s a little bit loose, which I like, but not oversized. It comes down to around mid rear end . It is a half sleeve or almost a half sleeve, so it covers the batwing area. It is a high crew neck, but not uncomfortable. It basically stays wrinkle, free almost all day long and after you wash it, it is ready to wear. Speaking of washing, the garment says to put in a separate bag and wash in the machine. I did not put it in a separate bag because I didn’t read the instructions, but I had no problem afterwards. It does say hang to drive which I always do anyway, and the blouse looks brand new after several washings. The top is very well-made, very department store like looking. I purchased two of them, the navy and the white. The white is a little sheer, but not too bad that you have to wear something underneath it because it is a loose fit, it looks put together. The price was great as I got it on a deal.

Super cute summer T-shirt!
Color: Black, Size: Small
Surprisingly cute! I thought it looked kinda neat and it turned out pretty great! I got a white one too! The fabric is cool and lightweight. It's different and I like that! It does wrinkle but no biggie. I was looking for a longer sleeve T-shirt and this exceeded my expectations!

Perfection in a top
Color: Black, Size: Large
This top is one of my favorites, so I ordered it in another color. I wear them often because they’re perfect for spring. The top hits at my hip, and the sleeves cover my upper arms, which I like. The cut is flattering and cute. The material is substantial and it drapes nicely. I find it true to size. Any kind of necklace looks great with the neckline.

It's okay
Color: Dark Green, Size: XX-Large
It may be my build but the shirt just does not look good on me. I like the color. It is comfortable, just does not look good on. Oversized look.
