Prohibition was a baffling time in US history. The United State of America was place that lived for its freedom but Prohibition seems to go against that principle. The 18th amendment told people that they were not allowed to drink a beverage that they had been enjoying for years. It was historian W.J.

Now to Win Friends and InfEuence People took its place in publishing history as one of the all-time international best-sellers.
