Experience the Seedier Side of Kansas City History

"This book is a drop-kick through the rough and tumble makings of Kansas City. From booze to brothels to boss politics, Karla Deel drags out characters on all sides of the law and honors them for their contributions (ethical or otherwise) to the rocky past of the Town of Kansas. The chapters are quick, and packed with detail-driven history. And what parts might not have merited a whole chapter are delivered in a delightful collection of miscellany at the end. If you have a friend whose mustache is a little too perfect, they'll love Storied and Scandalous Kansas City. BnB's in Kansas City (Air- or otherwise) this book should be on your coffee table.

It's definitely on mine to stay."
