Nostalgia Presents: ‘Chuck King’s Guide to Spokane History’
Episode 4: ‘Selling Sex in the Silver Valley’
On Episode 4 of the King’s Guide, Chuck King introduces you to Dr. Heather Branstetter, author of the fascinating book, ‘Selling Sex in the Silver Valley: A Business Doing Pleasure.’ What does it mean when a community agrees that ‘you don’t have to obey the laws, but you do have to follow the rules?’
Heather’s book gives readers an idea of who the women of Wallace, Idaho were and what they contributed to their community’s identity and fortune during a century of mining, hard drinking, illegal gambling, and yes, prostitution. Read her article on her book, published in Nostalgia Magazine, online here.
