Summary:Society is constantly evolving, and so are our drinking habits. The Prohibition Hangover examines the modern American temperament toward drink amid the 189-billion-dollar-a-year industry that defines itself by the production, distribution, marketing, and consumption of alcoholic beverages. Based on primary research, including hundreds of interviews with those on all sidesu--clergy, bar and restaurant owners, public health advocates, citizen crusaders, industry representatives, and moreu--as well as secondary sources, Garrett Peck provides a panoramic assessment of alcohol in American culture.
