Includes bibliographical references (pages 359-373)In 1973, an old American Indian woman dies with nothing left of her tribe but a trailer and a two-hundred-acre reservation in the sleepy backyard of Ledyard, Connecticut.

Over the course of the next three decades, the reservation grows to more than two thousand acres and becomes home to Foxwoods, the largest casino in the world, grossing more than $1 billion per year. The Pequots are reborn, immensely wealthy, and in possession of an enormous amount of political influence. How did it happen? In compelling detail, Without Reservation tells the stunning story of the rise of the richest tribe in American history.--

Bad news : a Dortmunder novel, book 10 / by Westlake, Donald E.(CARDINAL)341434;
John Dortmunder has given new meaning to the term "repeat offender." This time, he's stolen a dead Indian. "I'm a robber, not a grave robber," he says, yet soon he finds himself in a Long Island cemetery, in the very dead of night, with dirt up to his knees. His old friend Andy Kelp is to blame--Andy Kelp and the Internet. For it was while ambling on the Net that Kelp met up with master manipulator Fitzroy Guilderpost and his nefarious companions, the flunked teacher Irwin Gabel and the Las Vegas blackjack dealer Little Feather Redcorn. What these three have in mind is the amazing takeover of an upstate New York casino, and what they envision is that Dormunder and Kelp will not share in the ill-gotten gains. Shovel in hand, Dortmunder wonders whose grave this is. And if he isn't very careful, and very alert, it could be his.
