About this product
Product Information
On 16th January 1920, at the stroke of midnight, America went dry. For the next 13 years, no US citizen had the right to buy or sell alcoholic drink. Prohibition was to change America forever. However, instead of eliminating the source of the devil's brew , this period of supposed abstinence was to incite Americans to bend or break the law by every possible means: formerly law-abiding citizens now frequented speak-easies and brewed illicit alcohol in their baths; fishermen found rum-running far more lucrative than fishing; and illegal distilleries sprang up across the country. Far from eliminating alcohol from America, the laws of prohibition encouraged more drinking (albeit illegally) than ever before. This text details the 13 years.
