Summary

Sally Stanford was a bawdy house madam like no other. She put her houses of prostitution in the most upscale area of San Francisco and charged her customers accordingly. She paid her girls the top wages of the industry and helped them deal with their problems along the way. Sally didn't hesitate to fight the powers that be in city hall and other branches of government.

An interesting piece of history

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

The Book

This was an interesting look into the history of Sally Stanford and various other prostitutes with lots of crime and dodgy dealings going on throughout. It was very eye opening into how this type of 'business' was run and was a good in depth look into Sally Stanford's life and a few other areas of prostitution also.

The Production

The narration was clear and well read, it wasn't monotonous at all and suited the 'documentary' style of the subject.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
