Minwax has ruined enough of my projects. I'm looking for recommendations for wood finishing products, particularly stains and wiping varnishes, that actually work, are readily available on the East coast of the United States, and are not manufactured by Sherwin-Williams.

I suggest you check into woodworking supply places like Rockler and Woodcraft. They sell a lot of good finishes.
