Excerpt: ...He seemed to have an ambition to aid in law enforcement, and was appointed deputy sheriff in our county. It was at this time that I became acquainted with him. He boarded for a while at the Cooper House, and we saw a good deal of each other. Among his friends he was a jolly fellow, fond of chaffing, and yet with a certain reserve that impressed one as a dead-line. As soon as he became an officer, Rose displayed more than usual activity in running down offenders. He would take more trouble, and run greater risks, than the. average county officer. Man-hunting, for him, was a sport: he thoroughly enjoyed it. One day he went after a man who, so he told me, had sworn to resist arrest, and who was known to be a powerful fellow with plenty of nerve. Rose testified in court, when the case came up for trial, that when he started to read his warrant the man slapped him in the face and ran away; that he ran in pursuit of the fugitive, fell, and his gun was accidentally discharged. Anyway, the aforesaid runaway is now minus a leg. Rose lost his job as deputy for having displayed excessive zeal. In various cities that I have lived in it is a common practice for policemen to shoot at men who try to run away from them, and I never knew of one of them being disciplined for having done so. But here, in the mountains, the law and the custom are that an officer must catch his man by running him down, if he can; he must not shoot unless dangerous resistance is offered. After the passage of the Volstead Act, Rose was appointed deputy prohibition enforcement officer in our county. He at once began to display an ambition to make a record for vigorous enforcement, and he lived up to it. He made many raM'.caiptured many stills, arrested block aders and...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " In 1908 John C. Campbell was commissioned by the Russell Sage Foundation to conduct a survey of conditions in Appalachia and the aid work being done in these areas to create "the central repository of data concerning conditions in the mountains to which workers in the field might turn." Originally published in 1921, The Southern Highlander and His Homeland details Campbell's experiences and findings during his travels in the region, observing unique aspects of mountain communities such as their religion, family life, and forms of entertainment. Campbell's landmark work paved the way for folk schools, agricultural cooperatives, handicraft guilds, the frontier nursing service, better roads, and a sense of pride in mountain life -- the very roots of Appalachian preservation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Southern Highlanders: A Narrative of Adventure in the Southern Appalachians and a Study of Life Among the Mountaineers I have tried to give a true picture of life among the southern mountaineers, as I have found it during eighteen years of intimate as sociation with them. This book deals with the mass of the mountain people. It is not con cerned with the relatively few townsmen, and prosperous valley farmers, who owe to outside influences all that distinguishes them from their back-country kinsmen. The real mountaineers are the multitude of little farmers living up the branches and on the steep hillsides, away from the main-traveled roads, who have been shaped by their own environment. They are the ones who interest the reading public; and this is as it should be; for they are original, they are characters. No one book can give a complete survey of mountain life in all its aspects. Much must be left out. I have chosen to write about those features that seemed to me most picturesque. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Social History of the Mountain Folk of the Great Smoky Mountains: Our Southern Highlanders: A Narrative of Adventure in the Southern Appalachians and a Study of Life Among the Mountaineers is a book written by American author Horace Kephart, first published in 1913 and revised in 1922. Inspired by the years Kephart spent among the inhabitants of the remote Hazel Creek region of the Great Smoky Mountains, the book provides one of the earliest realistic portrayals of life in the rural Appalachian Mountains and one of the first serious analyses of Appalachian culture. Later in life Kephart campaigned for the establishment of a national park in the Great Smoky Mountains with photographer and friend George Masa, and lived long enough to know that the park would be created. He was later named one of the fathers of the national park. According to Bryson City author George Ellison, no book devoted to Southern Appalachia is "more widely known, read, and respected" than Our Southern Highlanders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of a little mountain girl, Sal, being brought up by her grandparents. Her presence on earth is the result of a brief, impetuous liaison between her naïve mother and a young stranger. "She air different," her grandfather declared and is determined that she obtain an good education. How he manages to pay for this involves something the government declares illegal, but that Andy feels is a right. Quite by a series of circumstances, she meets her father, now a prosperous lawyer. Will she join his family in a life of ease and luxury, or will she return to the mountain? This volume continues with a rather sociological study of the Appalachian folk and their ways by Horace Kephart, who spent much time among them. He discusses their life-views, their social norms, their feuds, and speculates upon their future. His study is considered definitive work on the people of the Southern Appalachians of the early twentieth century.
