The Historical Encyclopedia of Prostitution is a
reference work about prostitution past and present,
both worldwide (mostly in the West) and in the United
States to be published by Greenwood Press. With
approximately 600 entries on health, cultural issues,
migration, boom towns, legislation, technology,
literature, movies, and more, this three-volume
encyclopedia promises to be a foremost resource
devoted to this high-interest yet sensitive topic.

Entries related to art which remain unassigned
include:
