Brick, Lime and Moonshine

Inlanders of the Pacific Northwest are resilient during Prohibition, making moonshine or riding the rails or dancing for money or smuggling liquor across the Canadian border. Some go to prison or are shot and killed. The lucky ones have the thrill and distraction of falling in love. Be inspired by the optimism, ingenuity, and perseverance of everyday people. The struggle from farm and a sod house to flapper fun, dance halls, drinking houses and serenades on Loon Lake, Washington, where a lake cabin is built in 1928 that becomes the author's sanctuary. A combination of memoir, family history and fiction based on oral legend.
