Book excerpt: Excerpt from Whiskey Drips: A Series of Interesting Sketches, Illustrating the Operations of the Whiskey Thieves in Their Evasions of the Law and Its Penalties Just two months ago the Publisher of this work, then to me a stranger, invited me to write a book. The novel and startling proposition tickled my vanity, and I was purchased. So with all the pertness of youth, and the frowardness of experience - not being quite half a century old - I present myself to the public for the first time as an Author. The manuscript has been prepared within the limits of five of the original thirteen States, of ever blessed memory, and much of it written while travelling in railroad cars, or amid the bustle of a bar-room in country taverns. The sketches illustrating some of the thousand evasions of the law, are the experiences of others as well as of myself; and fictitious names are used therein, lest by giving real names an incredulous people should deem such persons the victims of a malevolent persecution, and as a compensation, elevate them to some remunerative place of public trust.

Book excerpt: A group of friends reunite after one of them has returned from a mysterious two-year disappearance in this edgy and haunting debut. Julie is missing, and no one believes she will ever return—except Elise. Elise knows Julie better than anyone, and feels it in her bones that her best friend is out there and that one day Julie will come back. She’s right. Two years to the day that Julie went missing, she reappears with no memory of where she’s been or what happened to her. Along with Molly and Mae, their two close friends from college, the women decide to reunite at a remote inn. But the second Elise sees Julie, she knows something is wrong—she’s emaciated, with sallow skin and odd appetites. And as the weekend unfurls, it becomes impossible to deny that the Julie who vanished two years ago is not the same Julie who came back. But then who—or what—is she?

Download or read book The Social History of Bourbon written by Gerald Carson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The distinctive beverage of the Western world, bourbon is Kentucky's illustrious gift to the world of spirits. Although the story of American whiskey is recorded in countless lively pages of our nation's history, the place of bourbon in the American cultural record has long awaited detailed and objective presentation. Not a recipe book or a barman's guide, but a fascinating and informative contribution to Americana, The Social History of Bourbon reflects an aspect of our national cultural identity that many have long suppressed or overlooked. Gerald Carson explores the impact of the liquor's presence during America's early development, as well as bourbon's role in some of the more dramatic events in American history, including the Whiskey Rebellion, the scandals of the Whiskey Ring, and the "whiskey forts" of the fur trade. The Social History of Bourbon is a revealing look at the role of this classic beverage in the development of American manners and culture.

Download or read book Blood and Whiskey written by Peter Krass and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2004-04-29 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first-ever biography of the man who created America's most famous whiskey Born in Lynchburg, Tennessee, in 1850, Jack Daniel became a legendary moonshiner at age 15 before launching a legitimate distillery ten years later. By the time he died in 1911, he was an American legend-and his Old No. 7 Tennessee sipping whiskey was an international sensation, the winner of gold medals at the St. Louis World's Fair and the Liege International Exposition in Belgium. Blood and Whiskey captures Daniel's indomitable rise in the rough-edged world of the nineteenth-century whiskey trade-and shows how his commitment to quality (his whiskey was always charcoal-filtered) and his flair for marketing and packaging (he launched his distinctive square bottle in 189-5) helped create one of America's most venerable and recognizable brands.
