Outliers, pg. 159-176

This is part two and it's called "Legacy." Chapter six is called "Harlan, Kentucky." First, he explains what and where this town is. It's small rural area. Most of the people that live there are from the British Isles. This town became famous because the town was split by a family feud. Then, the cops went in and looked around. They found that murders due to family feud were high, but stranger crimes (for example mugging) was low. The people from the British Isles are a group of proud people. The main motivate here was pride.

This chapter has brought me back in. This chapter was totally different than all the other chapters. I liked it.
