Many talented Scots found an exit route from the slums of Glasgow through football, boxing or show business. Archie Morrison discovered another way--through his skills as a croupier. Starting in the Stakis casinos in Scotland, he was soon headhunted for the Nassau Grand in the Bahamas, and eventually was lured to the gambling mecca of Las Vegas. Here, in Caesar's Palace and the Flamingo, he dealt the cards, rolled the dice and spun the wheel for Dean Martin, Sinatra and Lee Marvin, and for legendary professional gamblers like Amarillo Slim and Fast Eddie Seremba. Amid the hustle and glamour, Archie is always aware of his Scottish roots tugging at him. In a bittersweet ending he gives up his work in the casinos and finds a new life caring for the sick and elderly in his home city of Glasgow.
