It is, DonPalentino. But despite the sensationalist title, it's a serious book, by two UNLV professors about the history of gambling and organized crime in Nevada. The "Black Book" of the title refers to creation of the Nevada Gambling Commission in 1959, which then got the power to license key employees of hotel/casinos, and to create a list (the Black Book) of people who could be barred from even entering a casino, much less owning or operating one, because of current and past associations. Since you're a "Casino" fan, you'll recognize the key-employee rule as the one that sank Ace Rothstein, and the Black Book rule as the one that kept Nicky out of the gaming halls. Many photos, too, including the real-life Lefty Rosenthal, as well as Anthony (the Ant) Spilotro and his brother, who are absolute dead-ringers for Pesci and the guy who played Dominic.
