What follows for the Las Vegas historian is a first person narrative of the heady days of glitz and glamour in show business as witnessed and participated in during it's years following the second world war. Early Las Vegas had very few natives, and native Las Vegans never referred to their home town as "Vegas" The great majority of Las Vegans came from somewhere else and constituted the bulk of it's population. Constantly reinventing itself, defying the odds of becoming a ghost town after a bust, fiercely independent and proud of it, Las Vegas, unique in every way, soon became the envy of many. Another two decades would pass, and speaking for all my peers and myself, those wondrous years between 1954 and 1974 in our city had to be known affectionately as Las Vegas' Golden Era.
