Hatfields & McCoys

[Murky]

There's actually a History related mini series on the History Channel. It started lastnight but I'm sure there will be an encore.

Hatfields & McCoys

For people unfamiliar with American history it's about two families that become locked into a feud.

The Hatfields and McCoys. Mere mention of their names stirs up visions of a lawless and unrelenting family feud. It evokes gun-toting vigilantes hell-bent on defending their kinfolk, igniting bitter grudges that would span generations. Yet many people familiar with these surnames may know little about the faded history of these two families and the legends they inspired. Who were the Hatfields and McCoys, and what was the source of this vicious and violent clash between the families?

I was kinda disappointed when this was not about crisps.
