With action from the feud, a jealous suitor also after young June, and other incidents, there is a lot to keep you interested in this book, which is still as readable as when it was first published. And as is shown here, the main town starts to grow on the boom of coal, but being fully dependant on that coal such places can also go bust. For places like where this is set there was the problem of mountain people who had lived more or less undisturbed for generations having to adapt to a newer world and the law and order that that brought. This was the author's most popular novel and it is easy to see why, as it takes in quite a few different issues. As the modern world encroaches can the two families still keep their feuding ways, especially as Hale with others have started a police force and are out to keep the peace? With the families fighting either side of the State line, in Virginia and Kentucky, things are going to be tough.
At the same time unknown to Hale he has walked in on a feud between two families, the Tollivers and the Falins. This story follows their relationship over a period of years as it shifts through different phases. June is younger than Hale, she is still in her teens, but she is instantly in love. Whilst fishing he comes across June Tolliver, and is a little smitten. In the Alleghenies engineer John 'Jack' Hale is on the look out for coal streams. This is a wonderful tale set at the beginning of the Twentieth Century.
