Confidential is a 1952 book written by Jack Lait and Lee Mortimer (Crown Publishers). Its theme is crime and corruption.[1][2] The book is remarkable for early mentions of many who would become infamous, among them Benny Binion and Jimmy Fratianno.
A joint $7.5million lawsuit was filed against the authors of the book by the department store Neiman Marcus and its employees for defamatory statements made in the book.[3][4] The suit was settled in 1955 out of court, with the Mortimer and the estate of Lait (he having died a year earlier) retracting those positions and paying an undisclosed sum.[4][5]
