American Family
Author: Willard Paul Armes
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973688468
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
A personal story of the origination of two family’s early Celtic, Norman, Welch origins through their Scot, Irish and English descendant’s migrations to Colonial America. A survival story of overcoming severe limitations while continuously seeking to protect and provide for their families through persistence, faith and pure grit. Migrating from the Appalachian Mountains’ Berkshire spurs of western Massachusetts and Pennsylvania south into the remote southern Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina, they would raise their large families. With little outside support, a distrust of centralized government and a fierce independence, they would sustain their families through farming, logging, coal mining and the sale of meat, vegetables, and occasionally home brewed “moon shine”.

Moonshiners and Prohibitionists
Author: Bruce E. Stewart
Publisher: University Press of Kentucky
ISBN: 0813140099
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
A “masterly study” of how the business of homemade liquor shaped the history and culture of a region (Journal of American History). Homemade liquor has played a prominent role in the Appalachian economy for nearly two centuries. The region endured profound transformations during the extreme prohibition movements of the nineteenth century, when the manufacturing and sale of alcohol—an integral part of daily life for many Appalachians—was banned. Moonshiners and Prohibitionists: The Battle over Alcohol in Southern Appalachia chronicles the social tensions that accompanied the region’s early transition from a rural to an urban-industrial economy. It analyzes the dynamic relationship of the bootleggers and opponents of liquor sales in western North Carolina, as well as conflict driven by social and economic development that manifested in political discord—and also explores the life of the moonshiner and the many myths that developed around hillbilly stereotypes. “A much-needed contribution to our understanding of the complex social, economic, religious, and cultural issues underlying the prohibition impulse that swept the South between 1880 and 1920.” ―Journal of Southern History
