(Non-SF) Book at a Glance: "Last Call: Rise and Fall of Prohibition" by Daniel Okrent

Really enjoyed this piece on a fascinating time in American history.  Mr. Okrent does a great job of presenting the historical figures central to this time and issue, and illuminates the scale of the issues involved with great prose and funny little anecdotes.

Highly recommend it!
