The Irish Mafia is one of the oldest
organized crime groups in the
United States, in existence since the early
19th century. Originating in
Irish American
street gangs,
as immortalized in Herbert Asbury's
1926 book The Gangs of
New York, the Irish Mob has appeared in most major American cities,
including Boston, New
York City, Philadelphia,
Chicago, and New Orleans. |
