Green Felt Jungle is on the way from Amazon. Ghost written in the '60's by a Vegas insider who used the pen name Ed Reid. Co written by Ovin Demaris (Frattiano's book). Read the first chapter at amazon and the writing was catchy enough to make me want more. Interesting to see see how much info he had (or was willing to share) on the NY families that owned the strip then. As long as it has a few entertaining stories it will be worth the $5 plus shipping.
"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
