Minnesota 13: Stearns County's Wet Wild Prohibition Days (Used Signed Paperback) - Elaine Davis, Jim Bertram (Illustrator)
Welcome to the quite wet Prohibition era of Stearns County- a highly fermented era when according to author Elaine Davis, nearly 100% of the residents of some areas were involved in the illicit liquor trade, speakeasies reigned with the full support of local citizenry, and local Minnesota 13 brew enjoyed a national reputation. Intertwining insights ranging from ethnicity and religious faith to law enforcement, geography, farm economics and regional history, Davis provides a portrait of those whisky-fueled lawless days that offer both a cautionary tale and an entertaining history lesson. Davis even provides a convenient recipe for Minnesota 13 Moonshine just in case they decide to bring Prohibition back once again.
