Another trip deep into the heart of Kentucky,
By Pete (Kentucky, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Heart of the Hills (Paperback)
The familiar characters and settings of Fox's previous works "Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come" and "Trail of the Lonesome Pine" come to life again in the third of his trilogy "The Heart of the Hills". While the plots and characters of all three seem to be quite similar, Heart of the Hills is a welcome return to the experience of the eastern Kentucky mountain people - yet a more bittersweet look into the difficulties of the time. Long sealed off from the advancing society around them, the culture of the mountain people was forever changed by the explosive coal revolution. Fox has preserved a sample of this disappearing people and made it possible for us to experience this innocent but harsh age. A welcome change from today's offering of continuous action, Fox will interest a wide variety of readers with his subtle mix of history, romance, and drama.
