Sobre IBD

This book explains how Native American Casinos became the largest group of casinos in America as a result of the efforts of Congress, the National Indian Gaming Commission, and the creative management companies and game suppliers that served the tribes. This book is the biography of Gordon Graves, whom many consider being the Father of Indian Gaming. It tracks his early career in military electronics as the field matured from using large analog machines to inventing and utilizing digital computers. Graves then transformed his career as an accomplished engineer involved with military systems to become an entrepreneur in numerous fields, concluding in Indian gaming while building a business (Multimedia Games) worth over a billion dollars. Graves saw the future for Indian gaming and fought alongside the Indians through the courts to develop the industry into what it is today, a forty billion-dollar business. It was a wild ride!
