About This Item
Signed by both authors. Very Good +. First softcover edition. Waco, Texas, the heart of the Bible Belt, was once home to one of the largest red light districts. From 1869 to 1918, 'the Reservation' was home to more than 1200 prostitutes. Book has some shelf wear and scuffing and a folded down corner on the front, but the corners are square and the pages are clean and unmarked. Both authors have signed on the title page (no inscription).

About mark mcdonald
Book collector for over 30 years. I'm retired and ready to sell. I buy almost exclusively from estate sales and since I've lived in Dallas my whole life, I know the people and where to go. I am a low volume collector and seller and deal in higher quality books. I have a lot of signed and inscribed books. These signatures have not been officially authenticated, but I am confident in their authenticity so I will guarantee them in perpetuity if it can be reasonably demonstrated that the signature is incorrect. .
