From
whiskey, drugs, sporting women, and
outlaws, to scandal, sex, sin,
and saloons, the Wicked West was filled with both glitz and grits.
Though the vast majority of frontier settlers were hard working men
and
women, there were plenty of others who lived life to the fullest
– drinking, smoking,
gambling, and often spending freely, and
sometimes lavishly. Filled with numerous characters looking to make
their fortunes, the Wild West was often rough, sometimes dangerous,
and always unpredictable.
On these pages you will find many of the
notorious gamblers and
scoundrels, as well as
Painted Ladies,
saloons of the Old West
such as
Long
Branch Saloon in
Dodge City,
Kansas and the
Buckhorn
Saloon in
San Antonio,
Texas. Take a
stroll with infamous Madames including such names as
Dora Dufran,
"Chicago Joe" Hensley,
Squirrel
Tooth Alice as well as numerous other
interesting characters.
