“If [Berrier] has yet to master the fiddle, he rarely hits a false note on the page, expertly rendering the cadence and bygone culture of the Hall boys from The Hollow and proving himself a storyteller to do his elders proud. Less than a decade after the death of the surviving twin, Clayton, in 2003, Mr. Berrier has brought the “last of the old-timers” back to life.” – Wall Street Journal
” [A] rollicking series of tales that will rival the picaresque tales of Voltaire or Laurence Sterne as he recalls the adventures of the Bastards of The Hollow.”–The Roanoke Times
“The quite interesting examination of two Real American Men from an era that produced Real American Men…a close-up of twin brothers who come from hillbilly land Roanoke, VA-right out of O Brother, Where Art Thou? Clayton and Saford Hall…knew bluegrass and singing and were on their way to really “being somebody” in the music world…when World War II got in the way… Despite never breaking back into the music business, they live the American Dream. Is there a better way to live? Hot damn!”–Library Journal
