Libro 2 de 4: A Dry Hypocrisy: Prohibition, Power, and the Secret History of Washington D.C.
Sinopsis
Part of A Dry Hypocrisy Series...forgotten true stories of power, privilege, and unequal enforcement in Prohibition-era Washington.
He helped turn Prohibition into a moral crusade. Then the crusade turned upon him.
Bishop James Cannon Jr. was one of the most formidable religious political organizers of his generation. From church pulpits and temperance platforms, he presented alcohol as more than a social danger. It was a test of faith, citizenship, discipline, and national character.
His influence reached far beyond the church.
Cannon built alliances, mobilized voters, challenged political parties, and helped transform religious conviction into national power. But as Prohibition weakened, questions surrounding political money, personal conduct, and institutional accountability threatened the authority upon which his movement depended.
Investigations followed. Church proceedings tested his standing. Federal prosecutors brought him to trial. Cannon was ultimately acquitted, but legal vindication could not fully restore the moral certainty that had once made him powerful.
The Holy War: Bishop James Cannon Jr., Prohibition, and the Collapse of Moral Power, examines the rise of a crusader, the machinery behind his influence, and the devastating consequences that followed when public righteousness collided with suspicion and scandal.
This is not a story of proven guilt. It is the more complicated story of collapsing credibility—and of a reform movement forced to confront whether its leaders could survive the standards they imposed upon everyone else.
When morality becomes political power, who holds the moralists accountable?
Book Two of A Dry Hypocrisy Series.
