When Ghosts Made Moonshine: Prohibition in the Albemarle (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798866320554)

When Ghosts Made Moonshine: Prohibition in the Albemarle explores the extensive moonshining activity in the Albemarle region when vast amounts of liquor flowed through Elizabeth City, earning it the reputation as a warehouse for moonshine.

Remote East Lake on the Dare County mainland, accessible only by boat, was more than thirty miles south of the city. Far from prying eyes, moonshiners there took care in making quality whiskey, which earned a reputation as "sterling on silverware." Moonshiners, their spies, and bootleggers often outwitted federal agents pledged to arrest them.
