SynopsisA true telling of Dodge City's history without political correctness and Hollywood hype THE DELECTABLE BURG, a name given to the notorious Kansas cowtown by Bat Masterson and its newspaper editors. This new title describes the characters who are often omitted from histories of Old Dodge: alcoholics, prostitutes, crooked gamblers, acquitted killers, innocent travelers cheated and robbed, African Americans and Native Americans pitifully treated.
