Thomas Jefferson demanded four barrels a day from an enslaved cooper named Barnaby Gillette — and let him keep one out of every thirty-one as "payment." Every barrel that shipped America's flour, whiskey, and whale oil was built by hand from a single white oak tree, split along the grain, bent over open flame, and sealed without a single nail. From Monticello's workshop to Nantucket's whaling ships to the bourbon distilleries of Kentucky, this is the forgotten craft that held America together.
