Synopsis
A Story of Hard Spirits and Defiant Souls Franklin County, Virginia has long been known as the Moonshine Capital of the World. That history can seem romantic, but the county has a dark and violent past. The descendants of the Scots-Irish who settled its rugged mountains openly defied the law and employed their own notions of justice to defend their traditions and livelihood. During Prohibition, the production of moonshine skyrocketed, but the liquor didn't stop flowing from the mountains when the Eighteenth Amendment was repealed. County and state officials struggled to maintain order in a region where unsolved murders, strange disappearances, and senseless killings were a way of life. The peak came in 1978, with nine murders linked to moonshine and drugs in the county. Historian and Virginia native Phillip Andrew Gibbs tells story of that horrific year and the history behind it., Franklin County, Virginia, has long been known as the Moonshine Capita] of the World.

    Item arrived timely, well packaged, in good condition, and was as described. My only disappointment was that I ordered 3 cd's from the seller, and I asked for combined shipping and the seller agreed. Seller deducted $1.38 from the original shipping of $13.89, resulting in a charge of $12.51 to ship 3 cd's (weighing 11 oz.) That was not what reputable sellers would consider to be "combined" shipping. I ordered anyway. My fault for not clarifying with the seller. what combined shipping meant.
