Historic North Fork Tales:

Coffee & A Good Book with Amy Folk

February 25 | 11:00 am – 1:00 pm

$20.00 for Hallockville Members

$30.00 for non-Hallockville Members

Join Amy Folk as she discusses her book Rumrunners in Suffolk County: Tales from Liquor Island. Nicknamed Liquor Island, Long Island was a rumrunners paradise during Prohibition. With its proximity to major markets and coastal communities, Suffolk County was full of illegal liquor. Smugglers would bring cases from offshore and would secretly hide the liquor in local sheds and garages. Quiet towns experienced violence as locals became entangled in dangerous liaisons with bootleggers. This session will conclude with a rum tasting!
