SD is prominently featured in the characters and stories. It was a big hit. And an interesting read. even if you are not from the Dakotas.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Hat finderBy Hat finderLearned many things about this period in the history of my birth state about which I knew nothing. Recognized some surnames of characters of the era. picked up some new terminology and discovered how every rural area and every town - large or small had its own history with prohibition. Huge amount of masterful research of records of the period. Good read. Thanks Mr. Cecil.
