Liberated Spirits by Hugh Ambrose

The passing of the 18th Amendment (banning the sale of alcohol) and the 19th (women's suffrage) in the same year is no coincidence. These two Constitutional Amendments enabled women to redefine themselves and their place in society in a way historians have neglected to explore. Liberated Spirits describes how the fight both to pass and later to repeal Prohibition was driven by women, as exemplified by two remarkable women in particular - Mabel Willebrandt and Pauline Sabin.
Hugh Ambrose was a noted historian and the bestselling author of The Pacific: Hell Was an Ocean Away. He passed away in 2015 after completing this book. John Schuttler is a consulting historian, researching and writing on numerous topics for dozens of clients in the public and private sectors.
