Discover one of America s most fascinating cities through 30
dramatic true stories spanning Las Vegas s 150-year history. James
Roman takes readers on a tour through the glamorous and sometimes
sordid history of Las Vegas and explains how a railroad town
transformed itself into the Entertainment Capital of the World.
Essays explore the major historic events from the founding of Sin
City and the building of the Hoover Dam to the rise of the Rat Pack
at the Sands and the establishment of the Mafia-controlled casinos.
Also included are intriguing tales of Vegas celebrities from Frank
Sinatra and Liberace to Siegfried and Roy, as well as numerous
historical photos and full-color maps."
