Notes


Volume 11 in the Frontier Book series. This slim booklet examines the period of prohibition in Alberta from 1916 to 1924, documenting the activities of the provincial government and its officials, law enforcement agencies, and those involved in the illicit production, transportation, and distribution of alcohol. The account considers the enforcement of prohibition and the various means by which the legislation was circumvented.
