Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book studies commercialized prostitution in Chicago in the early 20th century. At the time, prostitution was a big business, controlled by men who exploited women for profit. The author found that much of the vice was concentrated in certain neighborhoods, and that the police were often corrupt and took bribes to look the other way. The author also examines the impact of prostitution on the city's social and economic life, and argues that it is a major cause of crime and poverty. The book concludes by calling for a crackdown on prostitution and for more support for social programs to help women escape the sex trade. This book is an important historical document that provides a valuable insight into the history of prostitution in the United States. It is also a powerful indictment of the social and economic conditions that allow prostitution to flourish.
