Innocent Outlaws (Paperback)

Paperback. Prohibition began at the dawn of 1920 and ended thirteen years later with the widespread belief that it had been a dismal failure, and was better left unmentioned: a bit of embarrassing American history, as it were. During the roaring 20's American society embraced cars, easy money, illicit booze, and fun. Cinema and radio emerged and promoted the social changes, and the gangster who seized the opportunity to get rich quickly carved out a lucrative niche in the American Dream with moonshine, moxie and guns. This story about innocents, outlaws and lawmen explains some of the complexities that Prohibition brought about, as well as providing an action-packed, four day romp of escapes, chases, murder, falling in love, and unexpected consequences.
