On the Boulevard : The Best of John L. Smith

Bok av John L. Smith
This book brings together the best writing of Las Vegas' most popular columnist, the Las Vegas Review Journal's John L Smith.

Subjects include: Las Vegas mayor and Mob mouthpiece Oscar Goodman, legendary slot cheat Bill Land, and seldom-chronicled gambling icons such as Mel Exber (Las Vegas Club), Si Redd (IGT), and Big Julie Weintraub ('60s junket operator).
