Set against the backdrop of Prohibition in 1929, the narrative explores the vibrant underground culture of Washington, D.C., where bootleggers supplied an astounding twenty-two thousand gallons of illicit spirits weekly to numerous speakeasies. This era, described by H.L. Mencken as the "thirteen awful years," reveals the complexities of American society during a time of strict alcohol bans, highlighting both the defiance of the populace and the impact of such laws on everyday life.
