Bisbee Noir: Saloon Life 1880 - 1915 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798848715682)

In Bisbee Noir, Vaughan takes you on a tour of the famed gambling halls and gin mills of Bisbee, Arizona, one of the most vibrant gambling and drinking towns in the West. Vaughan presents first-hand accounts from historic newspapers that take the reader into saloons of the past where patrons enjoyed a spot to drink, write a letter, read a newspaper, gamble, buy or sell a mining claim, and listen to music. Bisbee Noir captures brilliantly lit saloon interiors, where white coated bartenders and backbars stock fine liquors amidst the drama of gambling losses, hold-ups, suicides and murder. For history and business aficionados, Vaughan's catalog incorporates the names, opening and closing dates of over 160 Bisbee saloons
