The extensive media coverage of horse stealing and scalping raids profiled the region's residents as intrinsically violent. After the Civil War, this characterization continued to permeate perceptions of the area and news of the conflict between the Hatfields and the McCoys, as well as the bloodshed associated with the coal labor strikes, cemented Appalachia's violent reputation. Blood in the Hills: A History of Violence in Appalachia provides an in-depth historical analysis of hostility in the region from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century. Editor Bruce E. Stewart discusses aspects of the Appalachian violence culture, examining skirmishes with the native population, conflicts resulting from the region's rapid modernization, and violence as a function of social control. The contributors also address geographical isolation and ethnicity, kinship, gender, class, and race with the purpose of shedding light on an often-stereotyped regional past. Blood in the Hills does not attempt to apologize for the region but uses detailed research and analysis to explain it, delving into the social and political factors that have defined Appalachia throughout its violent history."--Provided by publisher. 000438465 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438465 650_0 $$aViolence$$zAppalachian Region$$xHistory. 000438465 651_0 $$aAppalachian Region$$xSocial conditions. 000438465 651_0 $$aAppalachian Region$$xHistory. 000438465 7001_ $$aStewart, Bruce E. 000438465 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tBlood in the hills.$$dLexington : University of Kentucky Press, 2012$$z9780813134277$$w(DLC) 2011030425$$w(OCoLC)724674678 000438465 8520_ $$bacq 000438465 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central 000438465 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=794345$$zOnline Access 000438465 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438465$$pGLOBAL_SET 000438465 980__ $$aEBOOK 000438465 980__ $$aBIB 000438465 982__ $$aEbook 000438465 983__ $$aOnline
