520    Describes the history of Hot Springs, Arkansas. The author
       plots the trajectory of everything from organized crime to
       America's fraught racial past, examining how a town 
       synonymous with white gangsters supported a burgeoning 
       black middle class. He reveals how the louche underbelly 
       of the South was also home to veterans hospitals and 
       baseball's spring training grounds, giving rise to 
       everyone from Babe Ruth to President Bill Clinton. 
520    Back in the days before Vegas was big, when the Mob was at
       its peak and neon lights were but a glimmer on the horizon,
       a little Southern town styled itself as a premier 
       destination for the American leisure class. Hot Springs, 
       Arkansas was home to healing waters, Art Deco splendor, 
       and America's original national park, as well as horse 
       racing, nearly a dozen illegal casinos, countless 
       backrooms and brothels, and some of the country's most 
       bald-faced criminals. Gangsters, gamblers, and gamines: 
       all once flocked to America's forgotten capital of vice, a
       place where small-town hustlers and bigtime high-rollers 
       could make their fortunes, and hide from the law This is 
       the extraordinary story of three individuals, spanning the
       golden decades of Hot Springs, from the 1930s through the 
       1960s, and the lavish casino whose spectacular rise and 
       fall would bring them together before blowing them apart.
