Hailed as the best account of the Best Little Whorehouse in Texas ever written, author Jayme Lynn Blaschkes Inside the Texas Chicken Ranch delivers much more than its title suggests shedding light on the history of prostitution and brothels in the Lone Star State in the processing of building a compelling portrait of that home out on the range immortalized in ZZ Tops 1973 classic La Grange. Informed by oral histories, extensive research and interviews the author conducted with legendary madam Edna Milton Chadwell, the 336-page book debunks myths and rumors that swirl around the iconic brothel and its origin story, yet presents them as vivid little folktales. Adding further intrigue to the storied locale and its colorful history are 95 eloquently captioned photographs, several of which are republished here courtesy of the author and The History Press.
