Grit: Based on a True Bloody Breathitt Story

By Sheenah Yoder

In 1915, deep in the hollers of Breathitt County, Kentucky, Elihue Allen stood accused of killing a deputy. Four trials, political corruption, and public outrage followed. But the truth was far more complicated than anyone wanted to admit. Elihue didn't have money, power, or prestige. But he had the truth... and grit.

Grit is historical fiction based on a true story: a powerful tale of resilience, injustice, and one man's fight to clear his name. Meticulously researched using over 300 sources, Grit brings a forgotten chapter of Appalachian history roaring back to life.

If you love courtroom drama, unforgettable underdogs, and stories rooted in real history, this book is for you.
