This paper was hammered out on a manual typewriter before the Internet existed. It was probably produced for some class at the UW, but I cannot recall the details. This document currently resides in the McCleary Museum files.

Moonshine: How It Works
A diagram I drew under my Dad's expert supervision about how to make moonshine. He built an authentic still as a display for the McCleary Museum many years ago. He's gone but his exhibit is still with us to this day. Illegal booze was a very big part of the history of McCleary, Washington.
The Willis family were involved in the trade both in Dickenson County, Virginia and Pacific County, Washington. Dad served as a lookout for his older brothers in Virginia.
