Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping and sensational tale of violence, alcohol, and taxes, The Whiskey Rebellion uncovers the radical eighteenth-century people’s movement, long ignored by historians, that contributed decisively to the establishment of federal authority. In 1791, on the frontier of western Pennsylvania, local gangs of insurgents with blackened faces began to attack federal officials, beating and torturing the tax collectors who attempted to collect the first federal tax ever laid on an American product—whiskey. To the hard-bitten people of the depressed and violent West, the whiskey tax paralyzed their rural economies, putting money in the coffers of already wealthy creditors and industrialists. To Alexander Hamilton, the tax was the key to industrial growth. To President Washington, it was the catalyst for the first-ever deployment of a federal army, a military action that would suppress an insurgency against the American government. With an unsparing look at both Hamilton and Washington, journalist and historian William Hogeland offers a provocative, in-depth analysis of this forgotten revolution and suppression. Focusing on the battle between government and the early-American evangelical movement that advocated western secession, The Whiskey Rebellion is an intense and insightful examination of the roots of federal power and the most fundamental conflicts that ignited—and continue to smolder—in the United States.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Western Insurrection in Western Pennsylvania: Commonly Called the Whiskey Insurrection, 1794 Now, if the mere circumstance of addressing a letter to Bradford by the insurgent Brackenridge, was a ground of suspicion, what shall we say of the friendly letter addressed to that person by Major Craig, shortly before Bradford's flight, as a self-convicted traitor, with all the wrongs done or intended to the Neville connection on his head? Could any one of the connection correspond with such a man, under any circum stances, without a disregard of all delicacy or propriety? There can be no excuse or apology for such an act; the only clue to it is the deep and deadly feeling of hatred to the insurgent Brackenridge. The ostensible motive for this revolting act, was to learn from Bradford whether the insurgent Brackenridge had manifested hostile feelings to Craig, personally, especially at Braddock's Field, in the committee of oflicers, and had spoken of him in a disrespectful manner. Was there no other person but the traitor Bradford to whom such inquiry could be ad dressed? The truth is too palpable - and sustains the conjecture of the Incidents - that the real design was to make a witness of Bradford against the supposed insurgent; and knowing his reckless disregard of truth, it was supposed he would say anything to save himself, through the powerful influence of the Neville connection. In this they were dis appointed; for, although Bradford, in his reply to Craig, said enough to gratify hate, yet the main and real Object, if the conjecture be correct, was not attained. Bradford dared not venture on the monstrous and self evident falsehood, of implicating the hated enemy of the N evilles, either as principal or accessory, in his treasonable designs Besides, he began to fear that his case was so peculiar in its atrocity, that he could not count with certainty, even with the aid of the most powerful influence, on being included in the amnesty, which he had Opposed, and then signed on the day. His case was beyond the power of mandragon or hellebore. He, therefore, fled to Louisiana, then a Spanish province, where he shared largely of royal favor, in grants of land 1 I hope I have now done forever with the Neville connection and their representative.
