Synopsis: For 18 years, Las Vegans have enjoyed small helpings of their own rich history, served up by public radio station KNPR. Hearing well-told tales of characters with names like 'Whiskey Pete,' and the comic-opera romance between a famous female evangelist and a boyfriend called 'Whataman,' many a listener has wished for a transcript. This book fulfils that wish, presenting over 100 selected mostly by the program's original author, historian Frank Wright. Wright mined the pits and pockets of local lore for nuggets little-known to the public, misunderstood by most, or merely enough fun to be worth telling once more.
