Despite a tropical storm hitting the island, Sarah, the bartender at Henry's, opens the pub for the night. When an old sea captain takes a seat and she offers him a drink, his reply is cryptic and, he warns, it leads to a story. Insisting he continue, a regular patron buys his first round and thus the adventure begins . . . It's 1742, Europe is a battlefield and a rebellion brews in Scotland. In the Americas, Mairi, a young Scotswoman, stumbles upon an innovative method for distilling whiskey. The spirit attracts the attention of Clarkeson, a beautiful Irish pirate, and she seizes a British ship rumored to have several barrels aboard. Declaring a personal war on the English, she executes the captain and claims the Caribbean Sea. As her notoriety crosses the Atlantic, it reaches an English pirate-hunter fighting the Spanish in the Mediterranean. Intrigued by the stories, he and his crew of whisky drinkers are faced with a conundrum-are the reports of this pirate, and her 'Oakies', credible enough to make it worth taking the journey to the New World?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alex Bennett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1669862631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781669862635\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Xlibris Us\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/02\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBlueInk Review\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/05\/2023","brand":"Alex Bennett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44133140496639,"sku":"9781669862635","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b5f51ae3-24d2-4cb3-ad57-4c6a6175692d.jpg?v=1687484321","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-shot-of-oakies-alex-bennett-9781669862635","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
