Rolling in the East

September 25th, 2006 by Dave

Here’s today’s Roll the Bones update: the long-anticipated East Coast book launch event has finally been announced:

WHAT: Official East Coast launch event, Roll the Bones: The History of Gambling
WHEN: Sunday, October 22, 2 pm
WHERE: Foxwoods Resort Casino
WHO: Author David G. Schwartz will be reading from his book, answering questions, and signing copies

Those of you in the New England/New York/Mid-Atlantic area who were bummed out over not being able attend the Global Launch Spectacular in Las Vegas (October 7, 2 p.m., at Mandalay Place) now have another option.

Seriously, thanks to Foxwoods for hosting the signing. The book opens with the Mystic Massacre and eventual birth of Foxwoods, so it’s the most appropriate place for a signing I can think of.
