About this book

Gragg considers how popular culture has depicted the city of Las Vegas and its powerful allure over its first century. Drawing on hundreds of films, television programs, novels, and articles, he identifies changing trends in the city's portraits from a "frontier town" to a sophisticated resort city, to a city largely built by organized crime.
