Name?

Did you know that the Shakers used to make bourbon? Apparently they made it for the "world's people", a.k.a. non-shakers, so as to bring in a little income to the village. I learned that little tidbit from the Ken Burns series "American Stories", an episode of which focused solely on the Shakers. In addition to that program, I also suggest watching Burn's documentary on Frank Lloyd Wright.
