Summary
"Outspoken Appalachian writer, Harry M. Caudill, analyzes the exploitation and decline of the eastern Kentucky mountain lands, which have rendered "no people in the nation... more forlorn than the Appalachian highlanders in our time." Frontier attitudes, a strong attachment to the land, and isolation have produced in Appalachia, a backwoods culture which made its people susceptible to an outside exploitation of their resources that has perpetrated on them a passive society largely dependent on relief."--back cover
