New York's shameful 1800s dance hall saloons trapped women into a life with little chance of escape. Discover how evil proprietors forced women into a life of servitude in outwardly flashy (but hellish) underground dens, where men (who came to be entertained by 'pretty waiter girls') were fleeced for cash, and, if they didn't lose their money to exorbitant drink, fixed gambling, pickpockets or violence – were lucky to leave with their lives.
