One Drink Book Club | The Whiskey Rebels by David Liss

In this episode of the One Drink Book Club Jamey and his guest Andy Waibel discuss The Whiskey Rebels, a novel by David Liss. The book is a historical fiction set in the late 1700s in Pennsylvania and follows two characters –Captain Ethan Saunders who served in the revolutionary war as one of George Washington’s spys, and the other Joan Maycott, who finds herself in the Western Pennsylvania wilderness as the victim of swindlers. The drama that connects them is Alexander Hamilton’s whiskey tax to fund the Bank of the United States. In the episode, Andy enjoys a Wisconsin Old Fashioned and Jamey makes a Fools Gold.
