“Mama, as Lillian was known, led close to sixty people out of the hills that night. In her late sixties she was the Matriarch of her immediate family of seven boys, and being the oldest of a dozen blood and in-law siblings she had taken on the roll as head of the family. Her husband had drunk himself to death twenty years ago leaving Mama to fend for herself and her family. The Noslers had settled in Arkansas in the mid-1800s, claiming land deep in the Ozarks that wasn’t good for much of anyth...ing. It was too remote, rugged and heavily forested for city folks. In the late 1800s Noslers had started working in the mines in the area, extracting lead, and for several generations they lived and died in the mines. Then in the 1980s the economy changed and the mines closed down. Needing a way to make money, Mama’s late husband had expanded his still and began producing illegal moonshine, which they sold in several small towns in the area. Her oldest boy, who liked to spend his weekends in Little Rock, came home one Sunday with a new idea to make money.MoreLessRead More Read Less
