One of the other novels about it I have read and liked is Big Rock Candy Mountain by Wallace Stegner.

I'd like to hear about the history he plans in his others: the Depression, the Auto years, Motown, Civil Rights ... Prohibition has surely given rise to some good novels. I think the last one I read might have been: The Wettest County in the World about rural Virginia. Whiskey River sounds like a good one too.thecuecardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08870323589682197091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14124551.post-74548279956326030092016-10-10T14:03:54.575-07:002016-10-10T14:03:54.575-07:00They made a good pair.
