The Farce Of Federal Prohibition (1919)

By Frank Irish Cadwallader

Book Overview

The Farce of Federal Prohibition is a book written by Frank Irish Cadwallader in 1919. The book provides a critical analysis of the Prohibition era in the United States, which was marked by the banning of the production, sale, and transportation of alcohol. Cadwallader argues that the federal government's attempt to enforce Prohibition was a farce and a failure. He highlights the widespread corruption and lawlessness that characterized the Prohibition era, as well as the negative social and economic consequences of the ban on alcohol. Cadwallader also provides a historical overview of the temperance movement and the political and social factors that led to the passage of the 18th Amendment, which established Prohibition. The Farce of Federal Prohibition is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a significant period in American history and the challenges associated with enforcing a controversial and unpopular law.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
