4.0

The term "wicked" in the title (and I do recognize it's part of a series) was a bit misleading. Really this is more of a look at the stories of Branson that aren't always talked about. In a place focused on family fun and entertainment, you don't always hear about the tough stuff. While there is some history, particularly about the baldknobbers, there's lots about Branson in its current form. I especially found the pieces about performers, both the realities of the finances and stories about individuals, most fascinating. This was a quick, enjoyable read and one that gave me stories and facts I can share with others on my next visit to Branson!
