This is what happened to Mamie Stover, a six-foot tall girl from Mississippi, with a shock of yellow hair and a determination to get rich and respectable. She won a beauty contest, got tossed out of Hollywood and landed in Honolulu, where with the assistance of a war and the U.S. Army she made her pile -- and an indelible impression on thousands of American fighting men.
Here is a vivid, angry novel that exposes the corruption and decadence that produces girls like Mamie Stover.
