During Prohibition, covert outlets for purchasing liquor and socializing popped up across the country. The interiors of these illicit speakeasies – a moniker that spoke to the necessity to keep voices low – encouraged discretion with low lights and intimate seating. But more importantly, the cleverly disguised exteriors discouraged prying eyes. This beautifully designed and photographed book showcases the most intriguing and hard-to-access modern-day speakeasies and private clubs from around the world, those that are near to impossible to find if you don't already know them.
