reviewed Feud: Hatfields, McCoys, and Social Change in Appalachia, 1860-1900 on November 18, 2013

Terrific! I was so pleased to see a serious analysis of America's most famous feud, and I was even more pleased to see that Waller's analysis boils down to what should be obvious, on a much grander scale, by now: people only kill each other in any sort of collective fashion over access to resources. None of that irrational/petty/backwards/violent hillbillies nonsense. As someone who was born in West Virginia, I was interested to see that Waller seemed so partial to Devil Anse and the other Hatfields, and I didn't terribly mind that she seemed to take that side. It would, however, be interesting to read another history written from a perspective more sympathetic to the McCoys and Kentucky.
