A Short History of Mississippi Coast Gambling: Told by One Who Worked It

by Hank Roberts

Hank Roberts relates his inside view of the history of gambling from New Orleans to Billoxi. Beginning as an 18-year-old working at the craps tables in New Orleans in the 1950s, he tells of his 60 years of working with the Mafioso of the Gulf Coast, and how gambling has evolved from illegal to legal activities. Readers will enjoy his myriad of antecdotes and learn how the Bosses controlled their turf, sometimes with violence.
