North Country Live presents Stories of Bootlegging in the Adirondacks

North Country Live presents "The Tank is Filled with Hundred-Proof: Stories of Bootlegging in the Adirondacks" with Tom McGrath.

In 1920, it became illegal to make, sell, or transport alcoholic beverages. The backlash to Prohibition quickly evolved into a world of bootlegging, speakeasies, and often all-out war with police officials. Due to its proximity to Canada, the Adirondacks became a hotbed of illicit activity. The presentation will highlight some of the people, places, and stories of the region during this captivating time!

This program takes place at 7 pm July 25 at our Ticonderoga campus
