PBS Releases First Episode of Ken Burns’ Prohibition Doc to iPads first

The latest Ken Burns’ documentary ‘Prohibition’ airs on PBS on October 2nd, 3rd and 4th, but users of the PBS app for iPad and iPhone users can watch the first episode now. The first episode tells the story of the events of the 1800s that lead up to the passing of the Eighteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Now I know that the term ‘bootlegging’ came from a name given to men who sold swigs of liquor hidden in their boots or under their pants legs.

The free PBS iPad app can be downloaded in the US App Store.
