For 20 years Josie Washburn lived and worked in houses of prostitution. In THE UNDERWORLD SEWER, originally published in 1909, Washburn minces no words in exposing the conditions that perpetuate prostitution. With this knowing social history and commentary on human nature, Josie Washburn gives voice to the victims--mainly the women who sold their bodies.
