Podcast appearances and mentions of gertrude lythgoe

You don't really much about women during Prohibition, but believe it or not they were major players in the game. Back in those days women were not ever suspected of being bootleggers so they took advantage. Many operated their own stills and transported the illegal booze. In this episode we will take a look at one of the first women Prohibition agents and a few well known bootleggers including Gertrude Lythgoe, whose Scotch Whiskey was the best there was, which made her the most famous woman bootlegger in America.
