Apeyard Holler

Jeff Foxworthy might know what makes a redneck, but James Elmon Godsey wears the title proudly. He grew up Apeyard Holler, Kentucky, where hard work and honesty were the things that formed a young boy's pattern for life. As Elmon shares the stories of his kinfolk and the "ways" of the Kentucky people," you will laugh, you might even shed a tea or two, but one thing is certain: you will understand these people a whole lot better. A "best friend" usually had four feet instead of two, but the loss of either kind shows their humanity, love and compassion. These men grew up to be strong supporters of our country, both in the military and in everyday life, as the next book about James Elmon Godsey will show.
