Why read it?
1 author picked Hell's Belles, Revised Edition as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a no-holds-barred account of prostitution in Denver’s Market Street district with all the accompanying Wild West behavior this implies. Secrest’s account is well researched, the photographs are fascinating, and it brings the seedy side of old Denver back to life!

A must-read for people interested in Denver’s History, the Wild West, or frontier prostitution.
From Randi's list on the dark side of the Wild West.
