Summary of dean king's the feud

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Before the Civil War, the Tug River Valley was largely ignored by the outside world. There were no roads, no rails, no schools, and no churches there. The transcontinental telegraph system, which crossed the country in 1861, bypassed the area. #2 Anse had set out to hunt the last known stag in Virginia, but when he reached the top of the ridge, the buck had vanished. He was alone, with his gun empty, bullets lost, and a spike buck aleadin' every dog he had clean out of the county. #3 Anse's hunt was cut short when he came across a huge black bear. He began yelling and flailing his clothes, trying to scare it away. The bear climbed a tree and waited out the night. The next morning, the dogs found him and gave him food. He returned home with a panther he had shot. #4 The Hatfield and McCoy families were both in the Tug Valley in the 18th century. The Hatfields lived on the Kentucky side of the Tug, and the McCoys lived on the Virginia side. The families were friendly with each other, and were intermarried on both sides of the river.
