The Bootlegger by John Hallwas

Functions as a portrait of small-town America emerging from frontier status into the corruption and violence of the Jazz age. This account of a struggling midwestern coal town profiles small-time bootlegger Kelly Wagle, whose mysterious career, and suspected involvement with two unsolved murder cases, had a lasting impact on his community.
Hallwas, John E.: - Noted regional historian John E. Hallwas employs a spectacular array of historic photographs from the Keokuk Public Library, the Lee County Historical Society, and the U.S. Corps of Engineers, to chronicle an astounding achievement and a distinctive Midwestern community. Please join us for this fascinating trip down the rapids of the Mississippi.
