Product Description
In a town where ladies of the evening walked the streets (but were legally bound to hide their ankles) and trouble rolled through town on the famous railways, this Piedmont city has seen its fair share of iniquity. From Frank Lucas, the drug lord whose childhood in Greensboro served as the catalyst for a life of crime, to the teacher who ruled his students with a switch and a pocketknife, the tales in Wicked Greensboro capture the shady side of the Gate City's past. Travel with local author Alice Sink down the streets of old-time Greensboro to view a city riddled with prostitution, bootlegging and all manner of unsavory and mischievous depravity.
Customer Reviews
. . . as a piece of apple pie pilfered from the kitchen window sill. You'll love reading bits and pieces of local color, some funny, some a little naughty, all fascinating and written in an easy Southern style that makes you keep turning the pages. This is one several of the same genre by Sink, a Piedmont North Carolina native and retired creative writing professor, and none will disappoint.
