A coffee-tabl;e book, this fine effort is a compilation of articles serialized in the Las Vegas Review-Journal. The subject is, of course, Las Vegas, the first 100 years, and it pays tribute to 100 people who were most influential in the shaping of Las Vegas. The authors compiled the profiles of these men and women who ushered the city to the forefront of pop culture. The names include casino founders (Bugsy Siegel, Benny Binion, for example), explorers and pioneers (John C. Fremont, O.D. Gass and Helen J. Stewart), entertainers (Sinatra, Liberace), movers and shakers (Kirk Kerkorian, Irwin Molasky, Steve Wynn, Jerry Tarkanian). Also includes Gambler's Book Shop founder John Luckman. Illustrated with black and white photographs, the book is an unusual format (14x8 1/2), beautifully done, and sure to be a sought-after item. 270 pages, 1999.
