Details: Product Description
Hazard, Kentucky is the setting for this historical story enhanced with some fiction, amazingly well told by author Wayne Combs, the great grandson of Bad Tom Smith. “Bad Tom” Smith was a notorious and murderous character in the late 1800s and as a result of his misdeeds was hanged in the town of Jackson, Kentucky for all to see. Still, there is more to a man than his public reputation. Bad Tom Smith was also a family man. This fast paced and realistic book will fill the reader in on many little-known facts, yet told in a storytelling fashion for enjoyable reading. But watch out, many of Americans have roots in Kentucky. You might find your own ties to this infamous character.

It was never boring….it had everything……romance, mystery, and drama, and I learned a few things about the people I never knew. You did a FANTASTIC job!! Lynda Combs Gipson
