Publisher's Synopsis

""Let�������s Have The Truth About Prohibition"" is a book written by Gordon Best that delves into the history and impact of Prohibition in the United States. The book explores the social, economic, and political factors that led to the implementation of Prohibition, as well as the consequences that followed. Best provides a detailed analysis of the rise of the temperance movement, the role of women in the fight for Prohibition, and the impact of organized crime on the illegal alcohol trade. The author also examines the unintended consequences of Prohibition, including increased crime, corruption, and the rise of speakeasies. Best argues that Prohibition ultimately failed in its goal of reducing alcohol consumption and instead created more problems than it solved. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Prohibition and its lasting effects on American society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
