Tales from Two-Bit Street...and Beyond, Part II Drienie Hattingh

Tales from Two-Bit Street and Beyond... Part II consists of thirteen tales, based on legends of Ogden, Utah's Historic 25th Street. This infamous street came into being with the opening of Union Station during the completion of the First Transcontinental Railroad in 1869. The original Union Station burned down in 1923. During the early 20th century, 25th Street was THE place in Ogden. In between family-owned shops, restaurants, ice cream parlors, and hotels there was bootlegging, gambling, narcotic sales, and prostitution. The rich history and spooky legends are where the Two-Bit authors found the fodder for their stories. The tales are scary, funny, melancholy, and sometimes a bit racy.
