by David Spanier (Author)
Las Vegas is an area renowned for its gambling activities. This book charts the progress of Vegas from its pioneer days as a mining town, through its heyday in the 1950s as the playground of the rich and famous, to its present incarnation as theme park extraordinaire - the themes being sex and money. It takes the reader behind the scenes to meet the characters and to learn how the system really works, and to experience the thrill of betting one million dollars on the turn of a card. David Spanier is the author of "Easy Money" and "Total Poker".
