Book Description
"The Appalachian community of Hollybush, first settled in 1881, grew to a population of some 150 people on thirty farm sites. Charles Martin shows that its abandonment in 1960 resulted from technological change, which brought social upheaval manifested in the region's now-vanished architecture." "Martin's analysis makes innovative use of the techniques of oral history and material culture. The essential data incorporated within the building survey document the physical displacement that occurred in the community as it attempted to switch from an agrarian to an industrial system. The author assesses the resulting social conflict, showing how coal provided the catalyst for change to which residents so profoundly reacted. In the experience of Hollybush the author discovers a paradigm of the social changes wrought by industrialism elsewhere in America."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Author: A.A. Valentine
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN: 1480986143
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 559
Book Description
Holly Bush Road An Angelica Barrister Story By: A.A. Valentine In order to gain, we must sacrifice. And if a large group, such as a town, took this to heart, what would be the outcome? What sort of sacrifice is necessary, and who is willing to sacrifice what they hold dearest to them for the greater good? Holly Bush Road is the origin story for the main character, Angelica Eva Barrister. This book focuses mainly on the family’s experience at their farmhouse on Holly Bush Road, and it introduces us to a sense of balance that is needed to be maintained, not only in our lives but in nature also. Perhaps we should rejoice in the “good” times, or perhaps we should be preparing ourselves for the “bad” times that will inevitably come.
