J. D. Vance Is a Fake Hillbilly E-Book

Discover the Point of View of a Real Mountaineer

For far too many decades, the residents of the Appalachian Mountains have faced the ridicule, prejudice, and misunderstanding from those outside the region.

With this bestselling book, author Frank Kilgore, a lifetime resident of Virginia's coalfield counties and descendant of generations of hard-working mountaineers, sheds light on the grit, tenacity, and multiculturalism found among the hills and "hollers" of this beautiful region.

Come see the Appalachian Mountains and those who call this wild and wonderful land home through the eyes of one who not only knows the land and her people, but who knows how to share the best of our mountain culture and calls out the worst of those who would disparage others for personal or political gain.
