For a look at events and results following the ratification of the 18th Amendment [aka Prohibition], we offer Bootleg Broadway, written by Diana Rubino and published by the Wild Rose Press.
About Bootleg Broadway: a story of debauchery and a little romance. Booze,
music, sex, murder, Prohibition…New York… what a time to be alive!
Our Review: Told
from the point of view of the main character, musician and raconteur Billy
McGlory, this fictionalized version of life during Prohibition is based on
research and discussions with many who lived during that tumultuous time, Author
Diana Rubino offers a close-up and personal view of everyday life during Prohibition,
those who learned to cope, who went along to get along. This is a vividly
painted story, filled with outrageously named and multi-colorful characters,
ringing of truths only insiders would know. They should. They lived it.
Based on a scale of 1-5, Bootleg Broadway
merits a 5.
