Description:
About the Author\nDaniel S. Pierce is professor of history at the University of North Carolina in Asheville. His other books include Tar Heel Lightnin': How Secret Stills and Fast Cars Made North Carolina the Moonshine Capital of the World,The Great Smokies: From Natural Habitat to National Park, Real NASCAR: White Lightning, Red Clay, and Big Bill France, and Hazel Creek: The Life and Death of an Iconic Mountain Community.\nIn the Great Smoky Mountains, moonshine making was a world unto itself. On the one hand, moonshining was about dynamite-totting lookouts, fast cars, snitching, quick cash, hidden stills, "revenuers," and deadly gunplay. On the other, it was a story of earnest farm families living in remote mountain valleys and practicing their traditional craft of moonshining so they could buy shoes for their children. Yet perhaps the most fascinating aspect of this book is the sudden resurgence of making moonshine in the Southern mountains today.\nJoin author and noted historian Dr. Daniel S. Pierce to learn about the traditions, foibles, and dangers of mountain "blockading" from the early 19th century to tomorrow.
