Bootleg Skies 30th Anniversary (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798651955718)

1929. Prohibition was simultaneously pissing off most Americans while making bootleggers very rich or very dead. That same year saw rapid advances in commercial aviation and twilight for the barnstormers hopping rides from hay fields in war surplus, open-cockpit biplanes. Pilots could buy one for a few hundred bucks, fly it until it crashed and, if they survived, get another. Few barnstormers got rich.
