For the 13 years between 1920 and 1933, the manufacture, distribution, or sale of alcoholic beverages in the United States carried with it serious legal consequences. This 2013 exhibition from the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) commemorates the 80th anniversary of the end of prohibition and brings to life the reasons for and consequences of the ratification of the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The introduction is a perfect place to start for a general overview and pertinent background information. Readers may then like to move on through a collection of themes: Early Alcohol Consumption, Brewing of a Temperance Movement, The Nation Dries Out, Quenching the National Thirst, Unintended Consequences, and Legacy. Along the way, there are fascinating tales and zoomable photos; in all, the site provides an excellent documentation of the life and death of the temperance movement.
