Omschrijving:

Exhuming the stories of the notable and not-so-famous figures who distilled the American spirit, the founders of Kings County Distillery now offer a rich history of whiskey, moonshine and other spirits. The book presents 50 entertaining--and sometimes morbid--microbiographies of figures from distilling's bygone days, including farmers, scientists, oligarchs, criminals and the occasional US president. The book also features sidebars, graphics, and photos, such as relevant family trees, walking-tour maps, and noteworthy, vintage newspaper clippings. A visually and textually rich volume from the authors of The Kings County Distillery Guide to Urban Moonshining, The Kings County Guide to Dead Distillers is a spirited portrait of the unusual and storied past of forgotten drunkenness.
