------------------------------
The history of the Mob, told by those who lived it. In this dramatic six-part series National Geographic Channel chronicles the true-life story of the modern Mob in America, as former mobsters, informants, and FBI agents expose the takedown of the deadliest and most infamous organized crime ring in U.S. history.
Mobsters, both real and fictional, have long captured the attention of the American psyche. Recent headlines are no exception: the trial of gangster James 'Whitey' Bulger; a new twist in the four-decades-long search for the body of mobster Jimmy Hoffa and a country mourning the loss of James Gandolfini, known for his portrayal of mobster Tony Soprano. But rarely do mafiosi step out of the shadows to tell their own stories of violence and greed. Now, National Geographic Channel goes behind the scenes of the famed and enigmatic hidden empire of crime, money and violence known as the American Mob to chronicle the real-life mobsters who would do anything to protect their family and the authorities fighting to bring them down.
Delve into the secret underworld of the American Mafia, as told by the criminals who lived it and the law enforcers who hunted it. Each hour examines a pivotal time frame, beginning with 1970 and leading up to present day, unveiling the little-known yet crucial escapades, capers and cadavers that truly compose the history of the Mob. Mobsters step forward to offer untold stories -- some speaking on camera for the first time. They expose the tricks to staying alive, even revealing what it feels like to have your own father come after you.
A combination of recently declassified files, first-person accounts by federal officials and the mafioso themselves, and rare archival footage sheds a new light on the raw, violent, and corrupt underworld that gripped America for decades.

NGC chronicles Gotti's rise to power as boss of the Gambino family as told by his closest Gambino associates and the former law enforcement officials determined to bring him down.
