The Wakulla County
Historical Society will meet on Tuesday,
September 10, at 4:30 PM at the Wakulla County Public Library. Our
speaker, author Robert Buccellato, will give a presentation on “Rum Runners and Moonshiners of Old Florida”. Please
note the new meeting time.
Travel back to one of
the most colorful and captivating periods of Florida history, a time when the
rebellious spirit of Old Florida challenged the federal government. When
Prohibition ended legal production of spirits and ordinary citizens turned to a
life of crime. Robert Buccellato the author of Florida Governors: The Lasting
Legacies and Jimmy Carter in Plains, shines light on a forgotten time of
bootlegged liquors, corrupt rural sheriffs, crafty moonshiners, and panhandle
traditions that date back centuries. We invite you to join us for this very interesting presentation. |
