ISBN: 9780679777588.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNevada is the place where Samuel Clemens became Mark Twain, Frank Sinatra became Chairman of the Board, divorce became an industry and gambling an institution. It was a place that Kit Carson could explore, where Bugsy Seigel could dream, and Howard Hughes might hide. Its the governments favorite place to test nuclear bombs and store nuclear waste. Its a place, in short, of an impossible amalgam and improbable history.\n\nFrom David Thomson, the highly-acclaimed author of Rosebud: The Story of Orson Welles, has beaten all the odds with a stunning book that pieces this great state together in all its mind-boggling contradictions. In Nevada is a rich and fascinating work inescapably necessary for any student of the American West.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44953042681909,"sku":"ByrdShop_067977758X","price":36.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780679777588_7905a379-7671-4c77-903b-43ce0bd48204.jpg?v=1778814081","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/in-nevada-the-land-the-people-god-and-chance-9780679777588","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
