Reviews
"A compelling piece of investigative journalism that lays bare the complex behind-the-scenes maneuverings and back-story events that rivaled the actual danger and drama of the race itself. Spectators who are mesmerized by organized crime's tentacles into the most glamourous aspects of American life, should buckle into this front-row seat."--Jeffrey A. Silver, Chairman of the Board of the Mob Museum"Randall Cannon has written a superb account of some fascinating but very complicated political and financial controversies--and occasional sly maneuvers--that characterized an important but little explored era in modern motorsports. His compelling narrative and evident command of the subject make this both an enjoyable and informative read and one that is likely to interest the casual reader as much as the motorsports enthusiast."--J.C. and Duke Argetsinger, sons of Cameron Argetsinger, founder of Road Racing at Watkins Glen"Randall Cannon's Caesars Palace Grand Prix takes us through the hairpin turns of the real Las Vegas during one of its most intriguing eras. Cannon understands the nuances of Las Vegas as the crossroads of American casino culture, organized crime, and motorsports. In these pages Mario Andretti and Paul Newman are juxtaposed with Caesars sharpies Clifford and Stuart Perlman and their associations with some notorious underworld characters. For organized crime aficionados and fans of Grand Prix racing, it's a race not to be missed. Hold on. You're in for a wild ride."--John L. Smith, author of Running Scared: The Life and Treacherous Times of Las Vegas Casino King Steve Wynn "A meticulous, detailed telling of the remarkable story of the Caesars Palace Grand Prix races on the Las Vegas Strip in the early 1980s (including the final Formula One race by legendary driver Mario Andretti) during the organized crime scandal engulfing the Caesars company involving Clifford and Stewart Perlman, Alvin Malnik and Meyer Lansky. A good read including rare photos and graphics."--Jeff Burbank, author of License to Steal and Lost Las Vegas ., "A compelling piece of investigative journalism that lays bare the complex behind-the-scenes maneuverings and back-story events that rivaled the actual danger and drama of the race itself.
