Book Description
"Rural New Englanders, Hoberman suggests, have too long been portrayed as backward-looking and dangerously homogeneous in their makeup - crotchety exceptions to modernity's nearly worldwide sweep. This insightful work, with its emphasis on instability and adaptation as persistent features of the folk region, does much to lay that stereotype to rest."--BOOK JACKET.
