Rumrunners is a history of the smuggling trade between the French Island colonies of St. Pierre and Miquelon and the United States, the Bahamas, and Newfoundland. The distribution of contraband alcohol has always been an element of the culture of Newfoundland and Labrador. However, with the advent of the American Prohibition era (1919–1933), the French Islands’ illegal practice took on worldwide proportions. Jean Pierre Andrieux is a St. John’s–based businessman and author of numerous books published since 1970. He has been closely linked to the tourism industry both in St. Pierre and Newfoundland since that time. He is married to Elizabeth King, and they reside in St. John’s.
