Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heinous crime. A genuine heroine. A quest for justice. The defendant, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, led his victim down that old Jake's Mountain Road and into the valley of the shadow of death. Then he came out alone; he left her there. And now, your path is clear. It is the time to be strong. The State is obliged to ask you to cast out from the living this Daniel Brian Lee, for it was he who dared to pluck the very flower of humanity! -Thomas Rusher, District Attorney for the State of North Carolina You must now be aware, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, that a weakness in the wall of a minute blood vessel in the defendant's brain set in motion a sequence of events that led to unbelievable human tragedy. You now know the dispensing of justice is not simple and sometimes requires an awesome measure of intelligence, maturity, and compassion. You also know that to execute a brain damaged person is to demean this State and this nation. Has our great State come to that? Have we come to that? -Chester Whittle, Defense Attorney for Daniel Brian Lee

Download or read book Our Appalachia written by Laurel Shackelford and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2014-10-17 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books have been written about Appalachia, but few have voiced its concerns with the warmth and directness of this one. From hundreds of interviews gathered by the Appalachian Oral History Project, editors Laurel Shackelford and Bill Weinberg have woven a rich verbal tapestry that portrays the people and the region in all their variety. The words on the page have the ring of truth, for these are the people of Appalachia speaking for themselves. Here they recollect an earlier time of isolation but of independence and neighborliness. For a nearer time they tell of the great changes that took place in Appalachia with the growth of coal mining and railroads and the disruption of old ways. Persisting through the years and sounding clearly in the interviews are the dignity of the Appalachian people and their close ties with the land, despite the exploitation and change they have endured. When first published, Our Appalachia was widely praised. This new edition again makes available an authentic source of social history for all those with an interest in the region.
