Hidden in the oceans, lakes, and rivers of the US lie lost wrecks that reveal secrets about how the American Mob gained power and wealth in the 1920s. In the Atlantic off New York are the rum-running tug boats Lizzie D. and William P. Maloney, linked to Lucky Luciano. In the Detroit River near Windsor, Ontario, Canada, lies the wreck of an upside-down Model T truck that fell through the frozen river in Winter, smuggling liquor from Canada to the USA for the Purple Gang, allied with Luciano. In Lake Michigan near Chicago, Illinois, lies the paddle steamer Rotarian, a floating speakeasy with bottles of liquor hidden in its bilge. The party boat was owned by the Cook County Democratic Party and Mayor William Thompson, who was closely allied with Al Capone. It was set on fire, towed into the Lake, and sunk to hide evidence of Mob involvement. Prohibition taught the Mob how to make money, work together, and corrupt politicians.
