Description
David Littlejohn (ed). Greater Las Vegas (LV) has been the fastest growing metro. area in Amer. Almost every aspect of its citizens’ lives is influenced by the gambling ind. 15 reporters studied the “real” LV -- the city beyond the Strip & Downtown. They talked to teenagers (whose suicide & dropout rates frighten parents), senior citizens (many of whom spend their days playing bingo & the slots), Mexican immigrants (who build the houses & clean the hotels), homeless people & angry blacks, as well as local police, active Christians, city officials, & prostitutes. They looked into churches, the labor unions, the real estate boom, defiant ranchers, & predictions that the city is about to run out of water. You will discover a LV very different from the one you may have seen or imagined. Photos.
