Bootlegging Adventures in Northwest Montana
This book will be enjoyed by those people who have an interest in Prohibition, history, or local stories. Bootlegging in Northwest Montana is a collection of stories of Prohibition activities including those who violated the law by making moonshine (liquor) in isolated stills in the woods, those who illegally sneaked liquor across the Canadian border called rumrunning, and those who tried to stop them. Stories range from the sad to humorous, foolish to clever, and realistic to unbelievable. The book is researched using many sources of newspapers, books, oral histories, and personal family accounts. Many pictures add to the stories and a recipe for moonshine used by a real moonshiner is included.
