As of this date, no one has attacked the substance of what I wrote in my book, “The Hatfield & McCoy Feud after Kevin Costner: Rescuing History.”
At age 77, I might have trouble finding my glasses, but I remember the 1950’s very clearly. For what it is worth, I am the last person who will write a book on the Hafields and McCoys, having talked to people who actually remembered the events.
This story can be read in my book, “Lies, Damned Lies, and Feud Tales.” https://tinyurl.com/ycqlg3oy
