CLEVELAND’S NAUGHTY PARTS: TRUE TALES OF VICE, SIN AND BAD BEHAVIOR (IN-PERSON)

The world’s longest striptease. The rumrunning yacht that sank a police department. The “heiress” who became a bank robber. The hotel famous for being a rock and roll haven. Cleveland has a colorful past. Jim Sweeney highlights some of the most sensational and entertaining episodes in the city’s history in his new book, Cleveland’s Naughty Parts: True Tales of Vice, Sin and Bad Behavior. The author of What’s the Deal With Dead Man’s Curve, Sweeney brings an historian’s eye and a humorist’s tone to this recounting of behavior that civic leaders would rather forget.
