  In the movie The Godfather , Don Corleone, head of New York's powerful organized-crime family, is gunned down in daylight, leaving his sons Sonny and Michael, along with his adopted son, consigliere Tom Hagen, to chart a new course for the family. This book shows how the aging don is emblematic of cold-war American power on the decline.
