Description

From DJ Flap - George Wingfield was a major figure in the early decades of the twentieth century, and his legacy is felt throughout the state today. He became a significant power in Nevada partly because he remained in the state with all of his money instead of leaving as other millionaires had done. His authority gradually reshaped the state.
