Hardcover. Condition: USED_NEARFINE. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. "First Edition" stated. Number line complete 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 -- the first printing. Previous owner has glued his Las Vegas name tags to both FFE and the half-title page, the latter identifying him as a "Yellow Banana Pilot." (The distinctive yellow paint pattern of the Boeing 727s and Douglas DC-9s of Hughes Airwest planes led to them being called "Yellow bananas," 1971-1980.) Boards resist opening past 80 degrees; probably unread. Kirkus reviews slammed these "self-servingly selective reminiscences of a world-class hustler who, among other dubious career distinctions, was a top aide to Howard Hughes. A sometime FBI agent who made a name for himself after WW II as a freelance trouble-shooter for a suspect clientele (the CIA, Stavros Niarchos, etc.), Maheu . . . was first retained by Hughes during the mid-1950's. While he never met his employer (who kept in touch by phone or memo), Maheu soon became the reclusive billionaire's main front-man, representing him, among other matters, in the purchase and operation of a wealth of Nevada casinos. Maheu also acted as the Hughes organization's bagman in its efforts to influence such pols as Hubert Humphrey and Richard Nixon. In the meantime, he continued to do the odd dirty job for pals in the intelligence community (e.g., recruiting gangsters Sam Giancana and Johnny Rosselli to assassinate Fidel Castro). Eventually, however, the high-living, Las Vegas-based Maheu ran afoul of the so-called Mormon Mafia, whose members danced personal attendance upon the ailing, drug-addicted Hughes, and he lost his plush post as the mad industrialist's chief surrogate toward the end of 1970. Maheu devotes much of the chronological narrative . . . to exculpatory accounts of the legal woes he endured in the wake of his ouster. These dreary recitals ring false, however. . . . A graceless, narcissistic, score-settling apologia that affords little fresh insight. . . ." Hey, THAT should help book sales! Celebrity billionaire show biz Las Vegas biography. 289 pp. including index. Reduced from $40.
