Product Overview
G.C. Red Jones's classic memoir of growing up in rural eastern Kentucky during the Depression is a story of courage, persistence, and eventual triumph. His priceless and detailed recollections of hardscrabble farming, of the impact of Prohibition on an individualistic people, of the community-destroying mine wars of Bloody Harlan, and of the drastic dislocations brought by World War II are essential to understanding this seminal era in Appalachian history.
