Camorra and Cosa Nostra waged a war in the 1910s America and Cosa Nostra eventually won. Camorra hasn't been relevant in the US since.

>We all know about the Sicilian Mafia
But people really don't. They assume you're talking about the American Mafia. An understandable mistake as its composed entirely of Sicilian descendants. But while Lucky Luciano's commission and the Five Families grew into "This thing of ours" that we all know and despise today, the Sicilian Mafia (as in from, operating in, and still based in Sicily) still exists and still operates in America despite its more famous offshoot. They don't share the American Mafia's taboo about narcotics, favor car bombs over gunmen, and consists of Sicilians from Sicily as opposed to Italian Americans. Over the past century, they and La Cosa Nostra have had the occasional gang war or two just to remind people that they are very separate organizations.

Anybody know of a good book about Sicilian Mafia involvement in the US? I can't find much info. Even more than their domestic counterparts, they seem to value secrecy and silence.

Like most mob taboos (sleeping with a made man's wife, encroaching on another family's territory, being a rat, acknowledging that the mafia even exists), mafiosi flout it often and pretty much always have.
