Informative, interesting and well written. Gary Taylor tells the true story of the end of the infamous "Chicken Ranch" in LaGrange, TX. Anyone living in Texas during that time- or ever- knows of this place. The Zindler we meet in this book in no way resembles the "bumbling idiot" from the movie. Flamboyant, yes but I come away from reading this believing he was a good and kind man who obviously not only enjoyed life but truly lived it. I have to speak of my FAV part of this book- his run in with Sheriff Flournay -a VERY descriptive account that had me rolling. I could see it happening as I read it .Nice!
