Marty Gervais: Marty Gervais is an award winning journalist, photographer, poet, playwright, historian, editor and teacher. In 1998, he won the prestigious Toronto’s Harbourfront Festival Prize for his contributions to Canadian letters and to emerging writers. In 1996, he was awarded the Milton Acorn People’s Poetry Award for his book, Tearing Into A Summer Day. He has twice won the City of Windsor Mayor’s Award for literature, and has been the recipient of nearly two dozen Ontario Newspaper Awards for journalism.
An illustrated history of bootlegging along the Great Lakes, Rumrunners gives us a sense of Prohibition -- and the larger-than-life rumrunners and bootleggers who thrived during it -- in a way that no document before or after has managed. This revised and enlarged 30th Anniversary edition brings back the original book with new stories and over 180 photographs and illustrations.
