5.0 out of 5 stars
Accurate and sensitive understanding of a local community,
By Canicum "Canicum" (Mars Hill, NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Appalachian Valley (Paperback)
Having lived in the county and worked as a community organizer while George was completing his work in Little Laurel, I can vouch for the accuracy and sensitivity of his account. For years I used the original edition in my courses in Appalachian Social institutions and identified it as the single best community study on the Region. Particularly helpful is the chapter on the "ethic of neutrality" which not only provides insight to students and "outsiders" but also to native Appalachians who wish to reflect on their own culture. Glad to see it back in print!
