256 pages with photos and illustrations
Popcorn Sutton is quite a living legend in the mountains of east Tennessee and western North Carolina because of his centuries-old trade. Popcorn is an authentic moonshine distiller and builder of the still on which to run the brew. He shows a unique sense of character and value system much as our mountain forefathers must have held with which they survived and reared their families. His life has been filled with disappointments and sadness as well as quality times when he grew up on Hemphill, a mountainous community in Haywood County, North Carolina adjacent to Great Smoky National Park. He learned his trade early and chose to drop out of school, drive fast, and chase women. When Popcorn realized that few people were willing to put in the hard work necessary to build a good "pot" or to make good liquor, he wanted to pass on his experiences with the trade. His flow of language is sometimes colorful and obscene; it is the way he expresses himself. He is real.

Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton’s crime: not hobnobbing with the rich and mighty

Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton, a famed moonshiner, was hounded to his death by agents of the federal government.  What did he do wrong?  Well, he didn’t drive a swell car and he didn’t belong to some fancy country club, and he didn’t hobnob with the rich and mighty.  Those were his real crimes, as this pamphlet makes clear.

Typeset on a Linotype in 12 point Garamond. Letterpress printed on Biblio paper with Copperplate paper cover. Hand bound in a limited editions. Now in its second printing.  I don’t expect to issue another edition once this second one has sold out.

Shipping included in price.

NOTE: This is NOT the book written by Marvin “Popcorn” Sutton.  It is a pamphlet I wrote upon learning of his death.
