Book Description

As a pharmacist turned lawyer turned master prohibition era bootlegger, George Remus is now remembered as one of the most notorious figures of the American prohibition. Even though he was a lifelong teetotaler, Remus built one of the nation's largest illegal liquor empires with little regard to disguises or secrecy. This biography tells the complete story of Remus' private life and public persona, focusing especially on the turbulent rise and fall of his bootlegging kingdom. It begins with an overview of Remus' early life and careers in pharmacy and law, and covers his bootlegging career, including his overwhelmingly successful early business ventures, his 1922 bootlegging conviction, his murder of wife Imogene (after she had a well-publicized affair with prohibition agent Franklin Dodge), and Remus' subsequent trial for her murder.

This app's ease of use has made my daily activities more enjoyable and educational. I can't get enough of the binaural audio processing. It's like a breath of fresh air for my ears. This app is a must-have for anyone who loves audiobooks. The interface is intuitive, and the app supports all formats. I love the auto-bookmark feature—it saves my place automatically, so I never lose track. Highly recommend!

ListenBook's audio filters and controls have turned my listening sessions into immersive experiences. 🚶‍♀️🎧 Walking has never been this productive – exploring new worlds while I exercise! 🏞️💫 ListenBook’s interface is clean and intuitive. It’s a joy to use. ListenBook’s audio quality is excellent. The app enhances my listening experience. This audiobook exceeded all my expectations! The narrator's ability to convey emotion through voice alone was remarkable. I laughed, I gasped, I might have even teared up at points - all because of the incredible vocal performance. The story came alive in a way reading alone couldn't achieve.

I'm absolutely in love with this app! The interface is so intuitive and user-friendly. With this app, I can seamlessly switch between audiobooks and real life. I'm amazed at how effortlessly I can immerse myself in books through this app. ListenBook Pro's noise reduction feature enhances my audiobook experience, ensuring I catch every detail. The narrator was good but spoke a bit too slowly for my taste. I had to speed it up to 1.2x which then made some parts sound slightly unnatural.
