"Spenard Stories: An Anecdotal History of a Neighborhood from Bootleggers to Miracle Mile and Beyond"
From its earliest origins, Spenard has represented an uneasy mix of independence, opportunity, and vice. A series of anecdotes, stories from Spenard past, illustrate the variety of life in this once independent town. From Joe Spenard himself to annexation to packs of feral dogs to the nightlife to murders, learn about Spenardians from yesteryear, or Spenarders as they were once called.
