Sobre este artículo
HUNTINGTON PRESS, 2003. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. For more than 35 years, Oscar Goodman was the country's pre-eminent defense attorney for alleged gangsters. His endless client list included Meyer Lan sky, Nick Civella, Anthony Spilotro, Frank Rosenthal, Jimmy Chagra, Natale Richichi, Nicky Scarfo, and Vinny Ferrara, along with many others.

Twice elected mayor of Las Vegas, he went from legal spokesman for the most noto rious crime figures of our era to political spokesman for the most notoriou s city in the country.
