Moonshine Over Georgia: A Novel Based on Actual Events

Written by Chris Skates

Narrated by Gary Barboza

Based on Actual Events: As a small boy hunting deep in the Florida swamps, C.E. “Kid” Miller had to become a crack shot, or his 5 sisters would go hungry. Now in the summer of 1946, Miller hunts Georgia moonshiners instead of game, and packs a Smith and Wesson instead of a double barrel.

For the first ten years of his career as a Revenue Agent, he and the moonshiners had a gentleman’s agreement – nobody pulled a gun. Since the big war ended, that’s all changed. The value of a gallon of moonshine is way up as is the crime associated with it. Now it seems everyone is getting trigger happy.

John Wallace runs Meriwether County with an iron fist. When he threatens to commit murder, Miller takes it personally. When the notorious Upson County Liquor Gang, run by the Godfrey brothers threaten his family, Miller goes to war. In his quest to bring these criminals to justice, Miller will reach across racial lines, and form a bond that would last a lifetime.

The moonshine business wasn’t all good ol’ boys and car chases. Sometimes people got hurt…bad. C.E. Miller was determined to shut it all down.
