Book Reviews of Las Vegas: An Unconventional History

Book Review: Strongly Recommended
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this book about a year ago when I moved to Las Vegas. It is an extremely interesting and thorough history of the town and it is an easy read. Great reference material for my library. I couldn't put it down. Definitely worth the $40 I paid - a steal at the bargain price.
