FILE - This book cover file image released by HarperCollins Publishers shows "Hillbilly Elegy: A Memoir of a Family and Culture in Crisis," by J.D. Vance. After writing about the problems facing people he grew up with, best-selling author Vance is going back to his home state to help do something about it. "Hillbilly Elegy” is about his life in the Ohio Rust Belt city of Middletown and also in rural Kentucky. It’s among the year’s top nonfiction books and drew attention because of Vance’s insights into Donald Trump and the white working class. Vance is starting a nonprofit to address issues such as upward mobility and the opioid crisis. (HarperCollins Publishers via AP, File)
