There's something new every day for me.
If anyone wants a concise account of the reality of prostitution in the Old West, a good place to start is the entry by Robert Schick in The Reader's Encyclopedia of the American West (Harper & Row, 1977).
And if anyone want to know about modern day prostitution in Wild South Wales - try the magic roudabout in Cardiff. Ha ha!
