This review is from: Las Vegas Hacienda Hotel History Book Volume II (Paperback)

This is a collection of nothing more than newspaper articles cut and pasted into book form. Not much historical narrative, and lacking in relevant aspects of the topic offered. Photographs are nothing more than xeroxed copies from newpapers that are dark, grainy and all in black and white.
Expections of the book's content and quality were not as decribed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Only book that details the entire history of LV hotel, October 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Las Vegas Hacienda Hotel History Book Volume II (Paperback)

I found the book to be extremely interesting. I was impressed that the author was actully the general manager of the Hacienda and traces the history of one of the first Las Vegas "mega-resorts". Mr. Taylor gives insight on the internal workings of a Las Vegas hotel that only someone who is an insider could. As with all of Mr. Taylor's books on historical events, it is filled with interesting information from well preserved archives. It would be worth your while to purchase if you have an interest in the history of Las Vegas or the hotel industry.
