"Nearly 600 films have used Nevada as a backdrop, ranking it in the top five states used as locations. From the lights of Las Vegas to the barren Black Rock Desert, filmmakers have made good use of the state's varied settings and spectacular scenery.".

"Here is the complete reference to films made in the Silver State. Alphabetically arranged entries provide technical information such as production company and release date, credits for cast and crew, and notes on the location. Interesting on-the-set anecdotes enliven the text, along with a generous assortment of photos.".

"Special features include six useful appendices: Awards and Nominations; Alternative Titles; Nevada Themed Films (movies set but not filmed in Nevada); Film Chronology; Films by Location; and Films Available on Videocassette. A bibliography and exhaustive index round out this comprehensive reference."--BOOK JACKET.
