Inhaltsangabe
Vegas mag heute ein "familienfreundliches" Resortort sein, aber zurück in den 40er, 50er und 60er Jahren wurde es vom Mob für den Mob betrieben. Spielen könnte riskant, sogar tödlich, geschäftlich sein, aber wo könnten Sie sonst Ellenbogen mit Howard Hughes, Sam Giancana, Marilyn Monroe, Jerry Lewis, Frank Sinatra reiben? Hier sind brutzelnde Geschichten über alle und eine spannende Belichtung auf: Wie Millionen von Dollar jedes Jahr aus dem Stardust-Hotel und in die Tasche des Mobs gelangen; Was wirklich passiert, als Frank Sinatra einen Stuhl am Casinoboss des Sands warf, wer Bugsy Siegels Mord geplant und warum und vieles mehr.

When The Mob Ran Vegas: Stories of Money, Mayhem and Murders

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Hardback. Zustand: Fair. 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. It's all Vegas, and it is fascinating history.Vegas in the '50s and '60s was indeed another world. Those were the days when small-time gamblers like me, in town with my wife for a weekend of shows and great food, could ride down the elevator at one of the Strip hotels with Lucille Ball, have an A table at the Versailles Room at the Riviera to see Rowan and Martin, with Edie Adams opening, and laugh until it hurt when Buddy Hackett played the old Congo Room at the Sahara.Behind the scenes, the Mob ran Vegas in those days. And stories abound. Through years of study and interviews and just talking to people from all strata of Las Vegas comes this book, a glimpse into the money, mayhem, and murders of early Vegas.
