This is a really cool book. I had to read it for a history class I took, but I ended being really glad I got the opportunity to read it. It's very interesting and informative about America during the turn-of-the-century and the battle between vice in Chicago (mainly prostitution) and the Progressive reformers. It plays out like a story, with a lot of colorful characters, rather than a boring textbook-like supply of just facts and dates.
