About Secret Hot Springs:
"Hot Springs, Arkansas, is a city like no other—filled with secrets, scandals, and resilience. Secret Hot Springs uncovers the madams, mobsters, and political activists who shaped its history, from illegal gambling rings to the struggles and triumphs of the Black community. Explore the bizarre natural disasters that have threatened the city, the legacy of its healing thermal waters, and the quirky businesses that have stood the test of time. With tales of Russian spy cats, an 8,000-mile trekker, and surprising ties to figures like Al Capone, Babe Ruth, and Bill Clinton, this book peels back the layers of a town where history and mystery collide."
