In language both spare and colorful, sure in its command of
Appalachian dialect and poetic in its evocation of mountain
settings, James Still's stories reveal the lives of his people --
lives of privation and struggle, lived with honesty as well as
humor. With a foreword by Cleanth Brooks and an afterword by the
author, The Run for the Elbertas features thirteen stories from one
of America's masters of the short story. Enjoyable and enriching,
Still's stories sparkle with wisdom and joy.
