Prohibition on Cape Cod: Running The Rum In is his most recent published work. \nDon has worked as a Cape tour guide and is a regular speaker on Cape Cod lore in Massachusetts and across New England. He was an award-winning newspaper editor\, writer\, and designer in Massachusetts for 36 years\, including a recent stint as a contributing history columnist and photographer for Cape newspapers.
