Here is a brilliant, authoritative, and fascinating history of America's most puzzling era, the years 1920 to 1933, when the U.S. Constitution was amended to restrict one of Americas favorite pastimes: drinking alcoholic beverages.

Truly entertaining
Revisado: 10-19-10
This was a fascinating and entertaining look at the history of prohibition and the remarkable circumstances that took place to cause it to happen. I didn't expect it to be so fun to listen to.

Of humankind's great achievements over the past 2,000 years, one towers above all the rest: the arduous, painstaking process of wresting liberty from tyranny's iron fist. The Triumph of Liberty chronicles this, our most inspiring story, through 65 biographical portraits.

Extraordinary insights into gems of liberty!
Revisado: 10-19-10
While I expected to hear about Thomas Jefferson, Ronal Reagan, Martin Lugher King Jr., and James Madison, the depth and breadth of this book was truly enlightening. It should be required reading for anyone with an interest in liberty. Each story is entertaining, informative and inspirational. There are so many influential people who were involved in the pursuit of liberty through the years and the author makes the connections to show how they knew and influenced each other. For anyone interested in understanding what Liberty truly means, this book could be the Cliffs Notes.
