TALES OF OLD VEGAS
Las Vegas in 1960 -- even the visitor knew something sinister was lurking in the city's dark underbelly. O'Connor's takes us back to the 50s and 60s as he describes some of the mystery and excitement the town held for visitor and native alike. Some of the characters he introduces are famous, others are little known but colorful people of the streets who enjoyed the good life in their own way.
This was the era of the Rat Pack with Dean Martin dealing 21 at the Sands for fun and Frank Sinatra getting into fist fights with hotel managers. It was a time when you handed five bucks to the show room captain and you got a seat close to the stage for any show -- except Frank and Dean. Those who lived in the city were smug in the knowledge that it was an insider's playground, a familiar turf that was fun to know and move around in. Now the world as it was is revealed as O'Connor brings readers into the lives of the adventurers who lived in that era when life was as free as the enforcers allowed it to be. 268 pages, paperbound, 2009.
