The region's turbulent history during that era could easily have erased any trace of the Borscht Belt's grand hotels. Prohibition fueled bootleggers and whiskey stills Dutch Schultz ran an underground distillery in nearby Ulster County. Meanwhile\, the Ku Klux Klan stormed north after WWI\, targeting new immigrants they viewed as threats to the American way of life. Amid the turmoil\, the Isaacson family stood their ground\, fiercely defending their land\, livelihoods\, and each other.\n\n\n\nAbout the author: Jane Rubin's research into New York City's history\, restrictive reproductive laws\, and period medicine led to her award-winning historical trilogy.

Over There (6/25 Level Best Books)\, the third installment\, moves to 1917 as medically trained members of the Isaacson family travel to France during World War I.
