The next quarter of a century he has devoted to exposing the frauds of the gambler.

Green covers with gilt images of horse, dice, cards, champagne, etc., unlikely to convince youth to avoid the advertised dangers.

[6],306,[2]pp., including illustrations. Portrait. Gilt pictorial cloth. Spine sunned, some fraying at extremities. Dampstain in lower inner corner of front board extending to margin of couple of pages of text, else quite clean internally. Small ownership stamp on rear pastedown. Very good overall. A classic work on the topic. The author states of gambling: "its fascination is insidious and terrible, and its power is all the more to be dreaded in that it appeals to a latent instinct in nearly every human breast." In this volume he attempts to educate the gullible as to the tools of the trade and the scams to avoid, though at the same time he also educates those who might wish to take advantage of others. Chapters include "Social Card Playing: The Kindergarten to the Gambling Hell," "The Race Track: A National Vice" and "New York: Paradise of Gamblers," among many others. The illustrations are marvelous, and including a wide variety of gaming tools and machines, cautionary parables, and a bumbling police officer called "McWeeny.".
