À propos de ce produit
Product Information
Weaves together voices of twenty-six people who have intimate connections to two neighboring towns in the southwestern Virginia coal country. Filled with evidence of a new kind of local outlook on the widespread challenge of small community survival, the book tells how a confrontational "do-or-die" past has given way to a "get-along" present.

Reviews
"Offers an unprecedented oral history of space and time . . . Stands as an admirable effort in pushing the boundaries of narrative, oral history, and ethnography."--Virginia Magazine, "This highly accessible and important work helps us think in new ways about the meaning of social change, economic development, and citizen resistance in Appalachia today."--Stephen L. Fisher, editor of Fighting Back in Appalachia: Traditions of Resistance and Change, "Do, Die, or Get Alongmakes a contribution to both the literature on the political economy of Appalachian America and our understanding of more general pathways to the industrialized world. The book flows smoothly (which is a credit to the editor), was a pleasure to read, and ought to be of interest to a wide variety of audiences, scholarly, and otherwise."--H-Southern-Industry, "The narrators in Do, Die, or Get Along provide appreciative insights into the complexity of today's Appalachia. Frank Kilgore, in particular, may be as close as this generation comes to having its own Harry Caudill. By the skillful editing of Crow, their intelligence and delightful gift for language artfully explain the Central Appalachian coalfield's unique social, political, and economic context, as well as the common human experiences to be found there."--Richard A. Couto, Antioch University, "This highly accessible and important work helps us think in new ways about the meaning of social change, economic development, and citizen resistance in Appalachia today."--Stephen L. Fisher, editor ofFighting Back in Appalachia: Traditions of Resistance and Change, "History happens at the point where people affect events-or the point where events affect people. Through skillful editing, Crow shows us just how and when this occurs, taking us from the region's earliest days up to present time. These compelling Appalachian voices range across age, sex, and class, bringing the story to vivid life. This is the best account I've ever seen of contemporary Appalachian life-and the most cogent and comprehensive look at what's ahead. An often surprising and altogether indispensable book."--Lee Smith, author ofOn Agate Hill, History happens at the point where people affect events-or the point where events affect people.

This was a fantastic find, complete, in original calf, of one of the most important histories of the American Revolution. Well packaged and swiftly delivered. Another reason I am continually buying from "Crottsy".
