Cult Vegas also gives you the inside dope on nearly every offbeat movie to feature Las Vegas, and peers into forgotten corners of showroom trivia and esoterica: Marilyn Chambers goes legit! Lorne Greene sings! The extreme, the awful, the camp, and the sublime—it’s all here in this freewheeling tribute to a half-century of entertainment that can only be collectively described as “Vegas.”We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
