This book tells the history of one of America's most popular soft
drinks, Mountain Dew. The 300 page book brings you from the drink's
earliest beginnings in 1946 all the way through to today's newer
drinks like Mountain Dew LiveWire and Code Red. Learn about the
Hatfield/McCoy feud that has been brewing for years over the
bragging rights to Mountain Dew. This book gives you detailed
information on who invented Mountain Dew, when they did it, and the
progress of the drink through the years. We start you in Johnson
City, TN where you meet Charlie Gordon, Jim Archer and Bill Kilber
of "Charlie, Jim and Bill" fame. Did you know that Mountain Dew
started out tasting like 7Up until Bill Bridgforth changed the
taste to the flavor we know today? From Tennessee we head to
Marion, VA to meet Billy Jones and learn about the Tip Corporation.
Then on to Lumberton, NC where you meet the massive Minges clan
that still controls Pepsi in North Carolina. And then back to
Knoxville on a hillbilly roller coaster ride of who did what and
when. Learn about the arm wrestling match (literally) with Pepsi
Corporate for fifteen million dollars to win the rights to Mountain
Dew. Learn why 900 bottles have different names and how Willy the
Hillbilly got his name AND you will even get to meet the real live
Willy. This book and historic pictures will definately tickle yore
innards
