Al Moe wrote a book called Nevada's Golden Age of Gambling. It's filled with anecdotes and history of casinos in Reno and Tahoe. I'm sure Al has it available. You can email him at nevadaal@yahoo.com.

There's also a book called Wood Chips to Game Chips filled with history of North Lake Tahoe. At one time it was available in the gift shop at the Cal Neva Lodge.
