by Fischer, Steve

Order 877204...$39.95
In this audio version of his best-selling book, the author asks: What is it about Las Vegas that captivates us? Is it how the skim worked at the Stardust and how millions of dollars walked out the door uncounted? Or what really happened when Frank Sinatra threw a chair at the casino boss of the Sands? Did you ever hear the story about how some very bad Vegas guys rigged the gin rummy games at the Friars Club and took a bunch of famous people to the cleaners? Howard Hughes had some weird notions about the Silver Slipper and put his money where his paranoia was. The author answers with: behind-the-headlines stories about the men, the Mob, movie stars, and missing money that made '50s and '60s Vegas such a hot spot in the Nevada desert. Through years of study and interviews and talking to people from all strata of Las Vegas this is a glimpse into the money, mayhem, and murders of early Vegas. 6 CD set read by the author.
