This book is very insightful for those who wonder what Nevada has to offer other than tourism and casinos. A must read if you are thinking about moving to this state!

This isn't a bad book, but the information is very broad, with not as many specifics as one might believe - or want. For exapmle, the book does not contain directions on how to obtain a work card to get a job in casinos, or what a work card is. Other info has nothing to do with Nevada but is still useful, like how to write a cover letter. The best info is the geographic info and the descriptions of the towns and real estate. The book's shortcomings deal with jobs and money issues (save real estate)Also, the book's writing style is very informal, to the point of dumbing down the material. Still, it's a pretty good place to start, but you'll want more specific info later.

This author covers the essential aspects one must deal with in considering and making a move to the Las Vegas area. I read another book called "Craps Across America" that gave me insight into the daily casino life that one could lead after moving to the "Sin City" area. But this book gave me the practical knowledge that I needed outside of the gaming world in Las Vegas. I recommend this book for the practical knowledge it provides.

I'm considering a relocation from New York to Las Vegas in the not-too-distant future, and this book seemed like it might be helpful, and to a point, it is. It has plenty of good information on registering a car, property taxes and the like, plus a lot of state history that is quite interesting. However, too much of it just reads like a list--there are lists of websites, lists of other books and not much else. I was hoping for more specifics, and while the book provides some, by and large it's not terribly extensive.

Has a lot of information, but very few really detailed or inside information about jobs.
