THE HISTORY OF MOONSHINE IN THE UNITED STATES
Moonshine has played an important role in American history. In fact, moonshine wouldn't even exist if it wasn't for American history.
Mankind has produced alcohol for thousands of years. However, the American government was one of the first major governments in the world to tax and control the alcohol industry. The moment the government started to tax and control alcohol was also the moment the moonshine industry began.
The term "moonshine" comes from the fact that illegal spirits were made under the light of the moon. In every part of America, early moonshiners worked their stills at night to avoid detection from authorities.
