Clyde May was the patriarch of a family from rural Bullock County, Alabama. He was a devoted father, a war veteran, and a church-goer. He was also a moonshiner. This colorful memoir, based on oral history interviews with May's son, Kenny, explores May's life and his passion for making good whiskey despite the risk of going to jail. Now the family tradition is taking a new twist, as Kenny and his siblings have established Alabama's first legal distillery to bottle and sell a distinctive whiskey based on the late Clyde May's recipe.
