<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Meet Trenchmouth Taggart, a man born and orphaned in 1903, a man nicknamed for his lifelong oral affliction. His boyhood is shaped by the Widow Dorsett, a strong mountain woman who teaches him to hunt and to survive the taunts of others. In the hills of southern West Virginia, a boy grows up fast. Trenchmouth sips moonshine, handles snakes, pleases women, and masters the rifle--a skill that lands him in the middle of the West Virginia coal wars. A teenaged union sniper, Trenchmouth is exiled to the back-woods of Appalachia's foothills, where he spends his years running from the past. But trouble will sniff a man down, and an outlaw will eventually run home. Here Trenchmouth Taggart's story, like the best ballads, etches its mark deep upon the memory.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A stunning, fully realized, unique and ambitious book that proves there's still passion, fire and brilliance in the American novel."--Houston Chronicle<br><br>"I was hooked immediately by the narrative voice, which I would describe as utterly kickass, take-no-prisoners in tone. The combination of hyperbole & hilarity throughout is what I would call High Hillbilly in the purest form."--Chuck Kinder, Author of Snakehunter and Last Mountain Dancer<br>
