The lore has always been that they liked Mussolini but when push came to shove they sided with the US. They were bad guys but had become American bad guys. But how true is that?

Cosa Nostra: The History of the Sicilian Mafia by John Dickie was a very interesting and in depth look that covered the WW2 years while going through the whole history. It's been a while but if I recall it was not so black and white. Great book, I recommend it.

This is one I think I need to read:
Operation Underworld: How the Mafia and U.S. Government Teamed Up to Win World War II - Matthew Black
There's another one called "Mafia Allies" by Timothy Newark that looks interesting, but the Operation Underworld looks just my speed.
