The Sicilian, Missing chapter of the godfather movie?

To the fans of the godfather,


You may not have read about the sicilian yet, Well its about a bandit named Salvatore Guiliano, A charismatic "Robin hood" type bandit who would rob payroll trucks of the government and would give them to the locals of montelepre,Not only that but he would rob anything he could get his hands on, Then share his wealth with the locals.Like i mentioned above, a regular "Robin hood." So iam assuming you remember the part where Michael Corleone shot the police officer and the "Turk" Sollozzo, the Bastard who was responsible for the hit on Don Vito Corleone. Michael was forced to go in hiding at sicily. Apparantly, The time frame is where the novel starts off, If you have read the book, you might notice and wonder why it wasnt a part of the godfather movie, *SPOILER WARNING* The movie would then turn its focus to Salvatore Guiliano, a more heroic and charming personality would take the attention off Michael Corleone and his new "HOT" wife. So to my understanding, Michael was sent to Sicily to go in hiding AND to my surprise, he had another purpose, It was to bring home this infamous outlaw...Salvatore Guiliano. Iam not gonna spoil the ending for you, My intentions are only to get you interested in this book in case you have not read it yet and you happen to be a big fan of the godfather, This book is for you. Think of it as another story within a story. Something you might want to look into
