Here are some references.  If anyone has anymore, I would be happy to get
them!  In Arkansas, this is known as a "Cottage Industry".

Has anyone done any research on the design and manufacture of stills? Or
collected any recipes of "the recipe"  or have we lost an important
component of our history through the regulation of the manufacture of
liquor?  It seems to me that that would be an interesting study.
