Alec Wilkinson's memoir of moonshine, an illegal but alluring beverage in Appalachia, is at once informative and entertaining. Wilkinson's story of moonshine making, smuggling, and bootlegging is steeped in Appalachian folklore and history. His tales of running moonshine operations with family and friends are as fascinating as they are dangerous. Despite the risks, Wilkinson embraces moonshine as an essential part of Appalachian culture and identity.; 8vo; 153 pages.
