Preview of "The Bootleggers: Idaho's Prohibition Pioneers"
Idaho’s liquor ban started in 1916. The nation followed suit four years later, but it was about more than shots in a glass. It was about representation. It was about rebellion. And it was about the nation’s first reckoning with federal regulation gone wrong. From booze hidden in boots to smashing bars with hatchets, prohibition brewed an overflow of illegal activity for more than a decade.
