This series of essays will provide insight into the Appalachian experience and the stereotypes. It pokes at all the stereotypes people hold. Some essays are better than others. Crystal Wilkinson's "On Being "Country": One Affrilichian Woman's Return Home" was particularly enjoyable. Some feel a little dated probably because the book was published in 1999.
