"Evolution of 30-plus "theater" entertainment venues in Pendleton, Oregon, from early settlement to modern presentation houses. This book discusses in detail, aided by 300-plus images, the impact of Pendleton's Wild West culture---saloons, gambling, prostitution, opium dens---on the economic development of theaters. Also discussed are social reforms such as Prohibition, suffrage and law enforcement raids. A history of early film technology and its deployment is included."--Google Books.
