Casino: Love and Power in Las Vegas – 2nd Edition, Revised and Expanded Foreword by Dmitry “Goblin” Puchkov
Dive into the explosive true story of Frank “Lefty” Rosenthal, one of the most influential and controversial figures in 1970s Las Vegas. As the man behind Nevada’s largest casinos, Rosenthal was a visionary manager who pioneered the sportsbook industry—a born gambler, odds-maker, and owner of a million-dollar home with a stunning showgirl wife. It seemed like a perfect life.
But a decade later, Rosenthal’s car was blown up; he barely survived. The prime suspect? His closest friend, Tony Spilotro. How did everything unravel so quickly?
In this gripping account, Nicholas Pileggi delivers another electrifying chapter of syndicate history. Like Henry Hill in Goodfellas, Rosenthal recounts his career in raw, unfiltered detail—a life built on boundless, multi-layered corruption.
“Why read detective novels when Pileggi offers such compelling nonfiction?” – Booklist
This second edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded, with an exclusive foreword by Dmitry Puchkov.
