Synopsis

Like 'The Happy Hooker', this candid, erotic and entertaining book brings to light intimate revelations of what really goes on behind the walls of a famous and very proper whorehouse. Pauline "tells it like it is." Factual and better than any fiction on the subject, she explores every facet of the business: payoffs, racketeers, politicians, policemen, judges, and, of course, her girls and their men. In her four decades as a bawdyhouse operator there is very little she has not seen - or done. From the moment Pauline opened a house of prostitution in her hometown of Bowling Green, she made a name for herself as one of America's most colorful madams. The House on Clay Street has been famous for more than a quarter of a century, a plush palace of pleasure providing all manner of gracious loving for the man who wants the best of everything. Interestingly, she also operated a farm for several years and became possibly the areas first organic farmer. She encouraged her "girls" to invest their money wisely and often provided counsel encouraging them to get out of the business early and settle down with a husband and family. Despite her "notorious" lifestyle, Miss Pauline was also a product of her times who felt that a woman's place was in the home. // First published by Touchstone Publishing Company, Louisville, in 1971 with ISBN 0879630086 (hardback and then later in paperback) and republished as a mass-market paperback in 1973 by Fawcett Crest with ISBN 0449018423.
