Abstract
This book - WHISKEY- is a significant and valuable contribution to the total understanding of American history. Oscar Getz has written a balanced account of the whiskey industry, for here too is darker side of the story- the smugglers and the rum runners of the Prohibition era, the murders for greed and the excesses in the name of righteousness during the years of that "noble experiment", and the Whiskey Rebellion and the Whiskey Rings after the Civil War.
