How old is this??
This book is helpful. But it's main value is historic. This book was originally published in 1809 when spirit distillation was still legal in the USA. Mainly helpful to farmer/distillers.

This book is really old but interesting, i would give it a 4 out of 10. Read for fun, not for learning how to make good shine. It's just really old book and every good moonshiner should have it. It's a good but but not the best.
Enjoy

This is a public domain book. You can download it for free.
Regardless of whether you pay someone for it, or download it, it's a reprint of an 1809 book on very small scale distillation in the U.S. It was legal at that time, and some of the techniques certainly carry on to the present day, but there are plenty of current books on distillation if that's your interest. This is best for historical interest. |
