Leadership Secrets of "Devil Anse" Hatfield: 12 Rules for Life, Horse-trading and Leading Folks

William Anderson "Devil Anse" Hatfield was a notorious figure in American History, casting a bloody shadow across the southern West Virginia/eastern Kentucky state line following the Civil War. In later years, he repented of his misdeeds and was baptized. This book is a collection of apocryphal letters from Hatfield to his sons, Joe, Cap and Tennis Hatfield. It is derived from stories told to me by my grandmother and others plus lessons I've learned in nearly four decades in the coal business. Ghosts, panthers, humor, scoundrels and politicians (ah, I repeat myself) are used to deliver common sense approaches to business, horse-trading and life. I hope you enjoy this book and take something from it you can use.
