West Virginia people

Comment:

I just read your book, “Shiloh”. I really enjoyed it. It was very interesting and different in a good way I got to see how West Virginia people acted and how they live in their environment and how much different my life is then theirs. How did you think of the paths of the book, they were very interesting?

People are more alike than they are different, actually.  In fact, if you compare Marty’s life with that of his friend, David Howard, you’ll see that although in some ways their lives, their homes, their father’s occupations are different, the two boys, and the two families, are alike in so many ways, and they both live not too far apart in West Virginia.
