            Book highlight: Many readers remember reading Sadness on the Mountain, by Norman Pinetree.  The story is about a young boy, Archie Bare, who becomes the man of the family when his father dies.  Archie, and his best friend, Joel, have the opportunity to purchase a $200 car for Archie’s mother.  If she has a car, she ride to houses she cleans to support her small family instead of walking. The problem is the boys do not have the money, so the owner gives them one week to come up with the needed funds. The boys concoct a scheme to raise the needed funds.  Set in Ashe County, North Carolina, Moonshine for Sale is about their adventures beginning when they convincing a retired bootlegger to let them have his stock “for a good cause.”  Along the way they find customers who are supportive of their cause, as well as a little bit of trouble and some adventures. Romance enters the picture as one boy experiences heartbreak and the other finds his first love. The story contains both pathos and humor with one of the most comical parts being their encounter with the local sheriff. The naïve boys whose motives are pure do not fully understand the potential far-reaching repercussions of what they are doing, and the reader would never think to accuse them of wrong doing.  After all, “it’s for a good cause.”  The 80-page, eleven-chapter book can be read in one sitting. (From the Museum's Winter 2009 Newsletter  The book is available from the Museum.)
