Overview

It's hard to believe today, but Phoebus, Virginia was once the Wild West at one time, albeit, on the east coast. A place where alcohol flowed freely 24 hours a day at saloons running the length of Mellen and Mallory Street and a red-light district with brothels providing their services day and night along with riots, gun fights on the streets, salacious murders, and legendary tales of revenge.

Early Phoebus had "more of the appearance of a new settlement on the western frontier" than a Southern city with centuries of history. And the people who settled in this community were most definitely pioneers in every sense. This book is an attempt to capture some of the stories and remember the people from the golden age of Phoebus saloons before Prohibition.
