Sobre este producto
- New Second Edition 2026 - Expanded with extensive source documentation. Tampa Vice is the definitive history of how one American port city became a recurring laboratory for organized crime, corruption, and adaptive vice.From the bolita numbers rackets of Ybor City to the Havana casino empire of the Trafficante family, from the cocaine cartels of the 1980s to the pill mill explosion and the rise of cybercrime, this revised and expanded second edition traces more than 140 years of criminal enterprise in Tampa, Florida.In its early decades, figures like Charlie Wall transformed an immigrant gambling game into a political machine that controlled entire neighborhoods. The Sicilian syndicate that followed brought hierarchy, discipline, and national Mafia connections. Santo Trafficante Jr. extended Tampa’s reach into Cuba’s casino economy and into the upper ranks of organized crime in the United States.But this book does not end with the Mafia.As federal prosecutions dismantled the old order, new forms of vice emerged. Colombian and Mexican cartels used Tampa’s port and interstate corridors as distribution hubs. Pain clinics turned regulatory gaps into a pharmaceutical gold rush that fueled the national opioid crisis. Strip club empires, legalized gambling compacts, and eventually digital fraud networks demonstrated that vice in Tampa did not disappear — it evolved.Drawing on court records, congressional testimony, federal enforcement reports, DEA and FBI data, archived newspapers, and the major scholarly histories of Tampa’s underworld, Dr. Donald Elton reframes the city’s criminal past as a structural story rather than a series of colorful personalities.Tampa Vice argues that crime in Tampa has never been accidental. It has been shaped by geography, immigration, military presence, tourism, regulatory experimentation, and a political culture that repeatedly negotiates rather than eradicates vice. Each generation believes it is witnessing something unprecedented. Each generation rediscovers the same pattern.This is not simply a gangster chronicle. It is a deeply researched examination of how commerce and crime intersect — and how a city built on cigars, shipping lanes, and ambition became one of the most revealing case studies of vice evolution in modern America.If you are interested in true crime grounded in serious history, in urban power structures, and in how illicit enterprise adapts across decades, Tampa Vice delivers the full story — from the smoke-filled back rooms to the digital underworld.
