Publisher's summary
Prostitution thrived in pioneer Colorado. Mining was the principal occupation and men outnumbered women more than twenty to one. Jan MacKell provides a detailed overview of the business between 1860 and 1930, focusing her research on the mining towns of Cripple Creek, Salida, Colorado City, and similar boomtown communities. She used census data, Sanborn maps, city directories, property records, marriage records, and court records to document and trace the movements of the women over the course of their careers, uncovering work histories, medical problems, and numerous relocations from town to town. She traces many to their graves, through years filled with abuse, disease, narcotics, and violence.
The book is published by University of New Mexico Press.

Story
The history of selling sex is a hidden one—and too often its practitioners are pushed to the margins of history. This book redresses the balance, revealing the history of the sex trade through the eyes of sex workers, from medieval streets to Wild West saloons, and from brothels to state bedrooms. Lister invites listeners to reconsider everything they thought they knew about the world's oldest profession. Together, these tales of sex workers from around the world and throughout history provide a powerful context to contemporary debates about sexuality and the empowerment of women.

Story
Dodge City, Kansas, is a place of legend. The town that started as a small military site exploded with the coming of the railroad, cattle drives, eager miners, settlers, and various entrepreneurs passing through to populate the expanding West. Before long Dodge City's streets were lined with saloons and brothels, and its populace was thick with gunmen, horse thieves, and desperadoes of every sort. By the 1870s, Dodge City was known as the most violent and turbulent town in the West.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

ADHD may be the defining diagnosis of our time. According to the latest data, more than 10 percent of American children (that’s 7.1 million kids) have been diagnosed with ADHD. And the number of stimulant prescriptions for adults in their 30s has shot up nearly threefold since 2012. In recent years, this explosion in demand has combined with other factors to create a widespread stimulant shortage in the US. In the second installment of Backfired, cohosts Leon Neyfakh and Arielle Pardes look at the unintended consequences of the ADHD industry, and trace the surprising path that brought us here.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

For Colorado Enthusiasts!
If you enjoy hearing about Colorado's history with this subject this is definitely the book for you. Has interesting highlights of way of life, fashion, moral standards, the "food chain" so to speak of Bordellos and brothels. Very interesting to hear the names chosen by the women themselves.
Really a very superficial overview of the police records of the time involving these women and their clients and their pimps. would be nice if it had more of a story line versus just facts investigated thru police records and old photos. (my assumption of course).
The narration was very monotonous and straight to the point. Making it tolerable but uninteresting. again my opinion.
Great timeline to follow but just not enough story to it.

Surprising!
This is a really fascinating book, apparently very well researched, well-written, and very entertaining as well. It's a shame that the reader doesn't seem to understand the significance of paragraphs in written English. She spaces every sentence in the book exactly the same distance for the previous one regardless whether the ideas in them are connected in any way whatsoever. It's VERY distracting from a history that deserves much better. The book is worth putting up with the shortcomings of the performance, anyway.

almost computerized narration
I'm still listening, but the narration is really mechanized To the point that a few sentences are hard to understand because the inflection doesn't make sense. It just makes it hard to be interested in the story.

Great content, unfortunate narrator
Oh my word, it took me months to get through this book due to the narration. So robotic, with terribly off inflection makes it so difficult to follow what is otherwise such a great work of research. I got through it out of respect to the author, but longed the whole time for a more enjoyable and engaging listening experience.

it's clear that quite a bit of research and effort went I to writing this, but the organization is confusing and the narrator is so monotone and boring that I feel like I'm listening to a college student reciting notes they quickly took from a textbook.

Ruined by narrator.
This could have and should have been a great book. I thought it would go into the lives of some of the women, but instead it's just about their lifestyle. There are so many great stories about the women of those days, I can't figure out why the author didn't tell them. The narrator is horrible! She talks so fast, it made me out and o f breath just listening. Too bad that a great subject was written and narrated so poorly.
