| 1. | Prohibition: Thirteen Years That Changed America
Paperback (272 pages) by Edward Behr (Arcade Publishing)
On January 16, 1920, America went dry. For the next thirteen years, the Eighteenth Amendment prohibited the making, selling, or transportation of "intoxicating liquors," heralding a new era of crime and corruption on all levels of society. Instead of eliminating alcohol, Prohibition spurred more drinking than ever before. Formerly law-abiding citizens brewed moonshine, became rumrunners, and frequented speakeasies. Druggists, who could dispense "medicinal quantities" of alcohol, found their customer base exploding overnight. So many people from all walks of life defied the ban that Will Rogers famously quipped, "Prohibition is better than no liquor at all." Here is the full, rollicking story of those tumultuous days, from the flappers of the Jazz Age and the "beautiful and the damned" who drank their lives away in smoky speakeasies to bootlegging gangstersÑPretty Boy Floyd, Bonnie and Clyde, Al CaponeÑand the notorious St. Valentine's Day Massacre. In an America still struggling with the problems of alcohol and drug dependency, Prohibition will strike an especially meaningful chord for today's readers.- ISBN13: 9781559703949
