| Abstract
|
:
|
"The subject of race and Appalachia was raised only sporadically ...Only with the explosion of scholarship on the region that has taken place in the century's final decades have scholars again given serious attention to the presence of African Americans in Appalachia and the implications of that presence-socially, politically, economically, and culturally-on the region and beyond. These essays represent a cross section of this recent work." -- P. 2.
