The Roaring Twenties were filled with a range of events, experiences, fears, laws and advances that affected Martha's Vineyard. Island residents were involved in rumrunning. Dozens died of the Spanish flu. Women voted on Island. Dorothy West joined the Harlem Renaissance. Immigration from the Azores slowed, and airplanes landed in Katama. Tourism blossomed and business boomed. Local author Thomas Dresser shares the backstory and the import of this remarkable decade and how it has shaped Vineyarders to this day.
