Uses previously unstudied Coast Guard records for New York City and environs to examine the development of Rum Row and smuggling in New York City during Prohibition. With the passage of the Eighteenth Amendment, “drying up” New York City promised to be the greatest triumph of the proponents of Prohibition. Instead, the city remained the nation’s greatest liquor market. Smugglers, Bootleggers, and Scofflaws focuses on liquor smuggling to tell the story of Prohibition in New York City. Using previously unstudied Coast Guard records from 1920 to 1933 for New York City and environs, Ellen NicKenzie Lawson examines the development of Rum Row and smuggling via the coasts of Long Island, the Long Island Sound, the Jersey shore, and along the Hudson and East Rivers. Lawson demonstrates how smuggling syndicates on the Lower East Side, the West Side, and Little Italy contributed to the emergence of the Broadway Mob. She also explores New York City’s scofflaw population—patrons of thirty thousand speakeasies and five hundred nightclubs—as well as how politicians Fiorello La Guardia, James “Jimmy” Walker, Nicholas Murray Butler, Pauline Morton Sabin, and Al Smith articulated their views on Prohibition to the nation. Lawson argues that in their assertion of the freedom to drink alcohol for enjoyment, New York’s smugglers, bootleggers, and scofflaws belong in the American tradition of defending liberty. The result was the historically unprecedented step of repeal of a constitutional amendment with passage of the Twenty-first Amendment in 1933.

Technology has changed the world. Most of us love technology. It has evolved. It has become more complex. We now carry a combined computer, telephone and camera in the form of a smartphone. It’s hard to believe that a smartphone contains, in addition to other technology, billions of transistors. In this fascinating book the author, George Gerstman, shares his story of technology that he has seen evolve over his lifetime. Encountering Technology takes you from the 1940s to the present, with photographs showing much of the technology that Gerstman used and enjoyed. The book includes scores of examples of the technology, such as digital computers that Gerstman programmed during the 1950s which weighed tons and weren’t nearly as powerful as the computer in an iPhone, radios that he listened to before television became popular, the advent of video games, the evolution of the Internet, film cameras that he used before digital cameras were invented, and so much more. Gerstman describes how he personally encountered the digital revolution. Encountering Technology directs you through the most popular technology of the past 80 years. The book is a must-read for everyone with any interest in television, telephones, radios, computers, cameras, the Internet, watches, video, or other technology. Using photographs and clear narrative, Gerstman describes engrossing aspects of the technical devices. His background in electrical engineering and patent law, as well as being a consumer, has given him insights that are certain to inform and excite the reader.
