NOTES
The Blue Ridge country king -- A closer walk with thee -- Resistance -- A museum and a mountaintop -- How to build a city -- Toxically pure -- They'll have to carry me out -- Better neighbors -- Blessed to be gray
"In the tradition of Joe Bageant's Deer Hunting With Jesus and J. D. Vance's Hillbilly Elegy, an intimate account of social change, country music, and a vanishing way of life as a Shenandoah town collides with the twenty-first century"--
