A book whose purpose is to show the existing conditions in the mountains of Kentucky and the attitude of the people of this region toward the improvement of the conditions affecting life and character.
“The style is not always clear and one at times is not quite sure just how much of a given statement is one of fact and how much is what a young and optimistic teacher hopes to see realized. On the whole, however, the author has shown up the modern, progressive side of the mountain people in a very creditable manner.” Samuel MacClintock.
