Description

Citizen Wynn recounts the cautionary saga of uber-wealthy casino king Steve Wynn, who built a global gambling empire on fantasy, grift, and misogyny before hubris and #MeToo brought him down. Part Mafia history, part deeply researched social commentary, part Horatio Alger gone horribly awry, Citizen Wynn is a modern morality tale with instant appeal to 100 million Americans who gamble regularly as well as millions more who recognize the Wynn name from Macao to Monaco.

Advance Praise

"McDougal spares no details in this winning and insightful exposé that chronicles Wynn’s stratospheric ascent to the top of the Vegas gaming industry and his eventual free fall, fueled by hubris and reckless behavior." —Booklist
