"Bootleggers and Borders is a very readable study of prohibition in the BC-US borderlands, combining discussions of political culture and ideology with accounts of the clandestine activities of the liquor smugglers.

"Bootleggers and Borders provides a compelling view of Prohibition's impact on the distinct culture of the Pacific Northwest and the interplay between liquor policies in this region and those in the rest of the United States and Canada."—James Klein, Journal of American History
"This exhaustively researched book integrates borderlands, international, social, and political history, providing countless insights about Canada and the United States. It is a model of research on the subject of U.S.-Canada relations."—Stephen Azzi, Journal of Interdisciplinary History
"This well-documented study is accessible without forsaking complexity, and I recommend it to borderlands scholars and historians of Canadian-American relations."—Dominique Brégent-Heald, Western Historical Quarterly
"The historiography on the Canadian-U.S. borderlands is growing, but exists more in anthologies and academic journals.

Donnelly, Oregon Historical Quarterly
"Students of Pacific northwest history, prohibition history, and Canadian-American relations will appreciate the book."—Mary Ehrlander, Pacific Northwest Quarterly
