In Prohibition and the Priest David Tracy moves his characters from page to page like chess pieces. In the era of the Volstead Act he relates a well-researched true story of courage, intrigue, and betrayal that pits a righteous priest against a corrupt Catholic hierarchy, a scheming FBI, and a vicious Ku Klux Klan. Based on the life of Father Walter A. Grace, this page-turner weaves three family histories into a sobering yet entertaining work of fiction in the genre of Larry McMurtry and Malachi Martin. Only in Prohibition and the Priest can a reader find realistic interactions between an actual rum-runner, George Skelly, a young Jimmy Hoffa, a holy St. Andre Bessette, wholesome Shakers, an eccentric Babe Ruth, a cunning J. Edgar Hoover, and barbaric Klansmen. Add in a wrongly convicted priest, a beauty queen who is in love with him, and a blackmailed bishop, the reader won't want to put this book down.
