BOOKS BY MIKEY
INTRODUCES
VEGAS, The MOB, and the
dead pig on the dance floor |
 |
Michael Broderick, early Las Vegas pioneer and long time gaming
insider, has just released a new book sharing stories of his fifty
years in Sin City working and playing with notables, from movie
celebrities like Frank Sinatra to billionaires such as Kirk
Kerkorian. The book details his journey as "Mikey", the little
boy from Detroit who had street smarts and, through fate and
hustling, found his way to Las Vegas' "Main Man" on a letter of
recommendation from a Detroit Mobster to his gaming expertise,
including being the first American Baccarat dealer in Vegas. This
author shares stories never before told about the naming of
Caesar's Palace, early morning ice skating trips to Mt. Charleston
with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Betty Grable and Harry James,
the discovery of Bugsy Siegal's hidden staircase getaway, strange
sightings out of Area 51 and an inside look at working with some
of the early Las Vegas mobsters.
Michael takes the reader on the journey of his life, filled with
surprising twists and unexpected turns, and chronicles what he
sees as a "magical" time in Las Vegas when the Mob ruled, respect
and honesty were rewarded and he experienced what was "one of the
best times of my life." This unique and heartwarming book will
rekindle the same warm feelings movie goers experienced with Stand
By Me and then catapult you into the world of Las Vegas gambling
and a lifestyle unexperienced by most, much like the movie
Chicago. Michael Broderick's Vegas, The Mob and the dead pig on
the dance floor... is destined to be on the best seller list. As the
author has been quoted saying, "excuse me, I think Hollywood is
calling!"...
