In the Highlands of North Carolina, there is a small town called Pineola, where the winters are brutally cold and snowy. In the 1920s, logging and mining were the main ways of life, and the railroad was the only way to transport products to and from the community. Railroad jobs were looked at as prestigious while other jobs were looked at as common. Family values of God, country, and community were held in high esteem. Mountain folklore was the tall tales of moonshiners, protecting the whereabouts of their stills.
