Annotation | In 1904, the ATC (American Tobacco Company) monopolized the tobacco market and groups began to pool tobacco to drive up the price. Farmers who refused to pool were subjected to the attention of vigilante groups, such as the "Night Riders." Beginning with Nick and Viola in 1899, three generations of the Muntz family were affected by these tobacco wars. 2013. |
