Opis

Almost from its beginning, Nevada sanctioned behaviours considered immoral elsewhere and embraced a culture of individualism and disdain for the constraints of more conventional society. Hal Rothman focuses on the factors that shaped the state's original maverick, colonial status and those that later allowed it to emerge as the new standard of American consumerism and postmodern liberalism.
