Summary

Moonshine History uncovers the hidden world of illicit alcohol production, exploring its evolution from simple backyard stills to complex, organized criminal enterprises. It examines the critical role moonshine played during Prohibition, fueling organized crime and sparking a cultural mythology of rebellious spirits. The book highlights how moonshining emerged as a form of resistance against taxation, particularly in the Southern United States, where distilling was a traditional craft.

 
The book progresses chronologically, starting with the origins of moonshining and its early technological developments. It then delves into the Prohibition era, detailing the rise of organized crime and the challenges faced by law enforcement. Finally, it examines the lasting legacy of moonshining on popular culture.

 
By combining historical analysis with cultural insights, this book offers a comprehensive understanding of moonshining's impact on American identity and the ongoing debates surrounding alcohol regulation.

    Continuing his exploration of British history, Timothy Venning examines the turning points of the period from the death of William I to the reign of Edward III and a little beyond. He discusses the crucial junctions at which history could easily have taken a different turn and analyzes the possible results. While speculative, the scenarios are highly plausible and rooted in a firm understanding of actual events and their context. Venning gives listeners a clearer understanding of the factors at play and why things happened the way they did, as well as a tantalizing view of what might so easily have been different. 
     
     
     
    Key scenarios include: 
     
     
     
    ● The civil war of 1136-53, how either Stephen or Matilda might have won quick and the likely consequences. 
     
     
     
    ● What if Richard the Lionheart had not gone on Crusade, leaving the inept John to rule in his place? Could the English (Angevin) Empire in France have been saved? What if that fatal crossbow bolt had missed Richard in 1199, sparing him an early death? 
     
     
     
    ● What if Edward I's riding accident in 1294 had been fatal, leaving Edward II to succeed at ten years of age? 
     
     
     
    ● A whole chapter with scenarios surrounding the Scottish kings.

    Hyperactivity, inattention, and impulsivity are all signs of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). People with neuro-divergencies, including ADHD, have a propensity to focus solely on the bad. 
    If you're a woman who has attention deficit disorder (ADHD), you've likely always known you're different. We learn as females whose habits, thinking, learning, or working methods are favored, acceptable, tolerated, and frowned upon. Females with ADHD learn via different channels throughout their lives that the way they believe, work, talk, connect, and behave does not line up with the desired way of being in the world. In other words, kids learn that diversity is a negative thing. And since these women are aware of their differences, they learn that they have been undesirable. It's past time to make a difference.
