- Title
Creating a Lost Cause: Prohibition and Confederate Memory in Apalachicola, Florida.
- Authors
Willis, Lee L.
- Abstract
The article discusses the history of liquor reform and prohibition in Apalachicola, Florida. The author states that calls for liquor reform strengthened as Franklin County' black population increased and Apalachicola invited significant late-nineteenth-century migration. The author explains that this demographic shift helped to transform the county's attitude about anti-liquor laws. The article also mentions monuments honoring the lives of Confederate heroes in other parts of Middle Florida and the south after the Civil War.
