Arizona remained a raw; rather uncivilized territory before it became one of the last states to enter the Union. Few towns exemplify this more than Prescott. Untamed land lured those who saw an opportunity to prosper; including a number of shady ladies. A staple of any western town; these wanton women were independent; hearty individuals eager to unpack their petticoats and set up shop. Within six years of establishment; at least five prostitutes operated in Prescott. As their clientele grew; so did their influence. Mollie Sheppard; Lida Winchell; Gabriell Dollie and many more women were integral forces on the city that should not be forgotten. From Granite Street to Whiskey Row; Prescott�s painted ladies established an ever-expanding red-light district halted only by Arizona�s admission to the Union in 1912. Join author Jan MacKell Collins to discover the soiled doves of Prescott�s red-light district.

As a Tim Burton nerd; I have found this book the most useful so farBy Sierra SpencerAn exhaustive encyclopedia of everything Tim Burton has ever done; as well as everyone with which he has collaborated. It also includes highly detailed information about each film (you almost dont need any "Making Of" books after this!) and my fellow "Beetlejuice: The Animated Series" fans will be happy to know that this book also contains a brief list of the cartoons merchandise; as well as the full summaries of "Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian" and "Beetlejuice In Love"; the two proposed Beetlejuice sequels.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful.
