Whiskey Makers in Washington, Dc: A Pre-Prohibition History by Troy Hughes
Description: | From the back cover: Before Prohibition, a number of liquor merchants operated in the District of Columbia. This was a time when intoxicating beverages were at the forefront of the national conversation, and the District, being subject only to laws passed by Congress, served as a testing ground for regulation. Learn the stories of the Poison Squad, Lemonade Lucy, the Sons of Temperance and the sad tale of Senators baseball star Ed Delahanty. On the political front, read a blow-by-blow account of the decade-long whiskey war, which involved every branch of the federal government as it sought to answer the question, "What is whiskey?" |
