Here is a tale told where the author didn't let the truth get in the way of a good story. With this, his fourth book, author Russell Groover takes you into Tennessee and gives the revenuers and Al Capone's gang a "run for their money" by driving something they wouldn't suspect anyone to run shine with - a motorcycle and a sidecar. For almost a hundred years before WW II started and they began rationing sugar, our main family income came from making the best corn liquor in four states...and transporting it with a Banshee. People still tell stories about that wailing howl of a Banshee spirit warning of someone fixing to die that comes out of those twin straight pipes and echoes off the hills around here when the engine is wound all the way out. The old times around here stop by now and then and keep asking me to fire up the still again. For the last two months I have been getting things ready to do just that...--back cover.
