(Prohibition) Colonel Ira L. Reeves. Ol' Rum River: Revelations of a Prohibition Administrator

$150.00

383 pp. Jacket. First. Edition. Chicago: Thomas Rockwell, 1931.

A scarce work on Prohibition published just after it ended, by the former Prohibition Administrator of the 4th District.  Chapters include "Squealers and Informers" (no judgment there!), "Buccaneers and Honest Men," "Bootleggers and their Pals," 'Spies, Snoopers and Tip-Offs," etc. 

Mild fading to jacket spine, a bit of chipping to extremities, otherwise very good.
