| 520 | |a This book uses the history of Breathitt County, Kentucky, to examine political violence in the United States and its interpretation in media and memory. Violence in Breathitt County, during and after the Civil War, usually reflected what was going on elsewhere in Kentucky and the American South. In turn, the types of violence recorded there corresponded with discernible political scenarios. Although the United States has enjoyed unparalleled longevity as a republic, this study reminds readers that the nation's political stability has had a tremendous cost in terms of bloodshed. | ||
