Description

During the Roaring Twenties, Ben Kerr used to be referred to as the “King of the Rumrunners.” The U.S. Coast Guard put him on the top of essentially the most-sought after list and offered a reward of $5,000. But ending up in Club Fed used to be not Kerr’s only worry – he needed to contend with Hamilton crime lords Rocco and Bessie Perri.

Whisky and Ice takes the reader back to the Prohibition era, when Canada and the USA were obsessive about “demon liquor” (to not mention the endless posturing by politicians). As Hunt aptly writes, the U.S. right through Porhibition “used to be about as dry as the mud flats of the Mississippi at high tide.”
