Baptists and Bootleggers: A Prohibition Expedition Through the South...with cocktail recipes takes you to major cities and small towns, all of which struggled between the Baptists and their teetotaling allies who preached temperance and the bootleggers who got rich providing what their customers couldn't buy legally.

If you have ever thought history is boring, you'll change your mind when you read this book.
