Description:• Four of American author John Fox Jr's classic westerns are bound together in this Kindle book: A Cumberland Vendetta, A Knight of the Cumberland, Heart Of The Hills & 'Hell fer Sartain' A Cumberland Vendetta (1896) Set in Appalachia at the turn of the 20th century, The Stetsons and the Lewallens live as enemies, carrying on a feud for almost fifty years.

A Knight of the Cumberland (1906) Set amid the waters of the Cumberland, the book tells the story of moonshiner and of feudsman. The knight is a moonshiner's son, and love is in the air, along with jealousy and pistols. The Heart Of The Hills (1913) Excerpt -- "The two little strangers sat in cane-bottomed chairs before the open door, still looking about them with curious eyes at the strings of things hanging from the smoke-browned rafters—beans, red pepper-pods, and twists of homegrown tobacco, the girl's eyes taking in the old spinning-wheel in the corner, the piles of brilliantly figured quilts between the foot-boards of the two beds ranged along one side of the room, and the boy's, catching eagerly the butt of a big revolver projecting from the mantel-piece, a Winchester." 'Hell fer Sartain' Five short western stories from the American author first published in book form in 1897. About The Author Kentucky-born author John Fox, Jr. ( 1862–1919) was an American journalist, novelist and short story writer who studied at Harvard and worked for the New York Times before his writing career brought him even more notoriety.
