Las Vegas--the name evokes images of divorce and dice, gangsters and glitz.
He is t.
He has won several national journalism prizes, including the Investigative Reporters and Editors Award for the finest investigative journalism in all media nationwide.
Roger Morris served on the senior staff of the National Security Council under Presidents Johnson and Nixon, until he resigned over the invasion of Cambodia.
She lives in New Mexico with her husband, who is her coauthor, and her three children.
She received Western Heritage Awards in 2002 and 2004, a Lannan Literary grant in 2000, and, for her body of work, the Nevada Silver Pen Award of 2003 for distinguished literary achievement.
She is the author of American Massacre: The Tragedy at Mountain Meadows, September 1857 and The Bluegrass Conspiracy: An Inside Story of Power, Greed, Drugs, and Murder.
About the Author: Sally Denton, an award-winning investigative reporter in both print and television, has written for the New York Times, the Washington Post, and American Heritage.
Now this neon maelstrom of ruthlessness and greed stands to not as an aberrant "sin city," but as a natural outgrowth of the corruption and worship of Money that have come to permeate American life.
Through this lucid and gripping indictment of Las Vegas, Morris and Denton uncover a national ethic of exploitation, violence, and greed, and provide a provocative reinterpretation of twentieth-century American history.
In doing so, they expose the disturbing connections amongst politicians, businessmen, and the criminals that harness these illegal activities.
Based on five years of intensive research and interviewing, Sally Denton and Roger Morris reveal the city\'s historic network of links to Wall Street, international drug traffickers, and the CIA.
The Money and the Power is the most comprehensive look yet at Las Vegas and its breadth of influence.
But beneath it all is a sordid history that is much more insidious and far-reaching than ever imagined.
Las Vegas--the name evokes images of divorce and dice, gangsters and glitz
