The Man Who Invented Las Vegas
Ciro's Books is delighted to welcome the new millennium  with a compelling narrative which corrects one of the biggest popular  misconceptions of the last. To put it simply, Bugsy Siegel did not  create either The Flamingo Hotel or the Vegas Strip. That honor  belongs to another man. In these pages, author and composer Willie  Wilkerson delves into his father's secret files to set the historical  record straight. Willie's discoveries, and the weight of evidence  presented in this powerful book, are little short of astounding.In line with Billy Wilkerson's top-drawer approach to business and  life, we've taken special care to ensure that this book is a quality  production. The book's striking cover, created by the designer of the  "Titanic" movie poster is a piece of art in its own right. Nor was any  expense spared in the production process. Intended to last for many  years, this archival paperback is printed on acid-free, 80# stock and  illustrated with more than twenty high-quality photographic  reproductions.
