Jitterbuggin' with the Renaissance: A Jazz Age Epic - Paperback

Bootleggers, Al Capone, bathtub gin, speakeasies, the Klan, mah-jongg, the Lindy, flagpole sitting, rumble seats, silent movies, and flappers. A fictive frolic through the Roaring Twenties as seen through the eyes of a young undercover reporter mentored by the era's key intellectual, H.L. Mencken, who unleashes his cynicism in all its vitriol. Clarence Darrow, Zora Neale Hurston, Countee Cullen, George Gershwin, Aimee Semple McPherson, Fats Waller, and F. Scott Fitzgerald do their part in the story as the Jazz Age reaches its crushing climax.
