LOVE HUNTIN' AND OTHER CRAZY HILLBILLY STORIES

LOVE HUNTIN’ AND OTHER CRAZY HILLBILLY STORIES
Volume 4 of MUSING APPALACHIA

Hillbillies are peculiar critters, found only in the Appalachian Mountains…where real life often seems stranger than fiction. These stories weave mountain customs and folklore into the lives of whimsical characters who were mostly sane (give or take a little). I write about the more eccentric, humorous, and fun-loving folks I’ve run across…sprinkled with a few embellishments here and there.
