Summary

"A Cumberland Vendetta" by John Fox Jr. is a historical novel that explores a bitter rivalry between the Stetson and Lewallen families in the Appalachian Mountains many years ago. The book centers on Rome Stetson, a young man divided between his love for his family and his connection to Martha Lewallen, a girl from the rival family. The story begins with Rome and his half-brother Isom living their lives in the woods, but hints of trouble brewing between the two families are quickly revealed. Rome's growing feelings for Martha complicate things further, as his family seeks revenge for past wrongs, leading to tough choices and inevitable, violent showdowns to test the family's loyalty and decide everyone's future.
