A Short History Of Reno

A Short History of Reno is an entertaining and anecdotal treatment of the city's history. Wonderfully illustrated with dozens of black and white photographs, the Lands uncover some little known facts and enlighten readers about Reno's colorful past and the parade of larger-than-life characters who left their mark on the city, including: pathfinder John C. Fremont who named the river coursing down from Lake Tahoe after his Paiute guide, Truckee; gambling kings who ran strings of prostitutes and laundered money for gangsters like Pretty Boy Floyd and John Dillinger; the celebrities who made Reno a divorce mecca; and Bingo man Bill Harrah who made Nevada the entertainment capital of the world.
