(4) 4-6 During the Depression, Thad makes some extra money by delivering bootleg corn liquor to tourists in his Missouri town. A wealthy visitor opens Thad's eyes to the possibilities of life outside his poor, backwoods region but betrays the thirteen-year-old's trust when he reveals himself as a government agent sent to destroy illegal stills. Though colorfully told, the tale is familiar.
