Summary: Okay to start here, but go to the library later...
Comment: Miller's book is not very well written and his insights and commentary are extremely dated and often annoying and intrusive. However, for novices to this area of history, or just for plain old good fun, "Shady Ladies" provides brief overviews of some of the West's most fascinating women. Calamity Jane, Lola Montez and Mammy Pleasant are given the more in-depth treatment that they deserve. Also, the author provides a dictionary of terms in the index, which for those of us not familiar with terms like "lady of the line", is quite helpful. Buy the book for general background information or for fun. Go to the library for serious research. Overall an okay read.
