Book Overview

""When A State Goes Dry: A Brief Study In Law Enforcement"" by Frederick O. Blue is a book that examines the impact of prohibition on law enforcement in the United States. The author analyzes the legal, social, and economic effects of the 18th Amendment, which prohibited the sale, manufacture, and transportation of alcohol from 1920 to 1933. The book explores the challenges faced by law enforcement officials in enforcing the prohibition laws, including corruption, violence, and organized crime. Blue also discusses the role of the media in shaping public opinion about prohibition and the eventual repeal of the 18th Amendment. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the history of prohibition in the United States and its impact on law enforcement, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars of American history and criminal justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
