During his storied career as a feature writer and photographer,
award-winning journalist John Blankenship met with the famous and
infamous, the proud and the humble, the glamorous and the plain.
With every interview, the writer learned something new about human
nature and about himself-about pride and independence, loyalty and
steadfastness, honesty and integrity. These snapshots from a
reporter's notebook offer a compelling look at the resilient folk
of Appalachia from the 1980s to the present. The author's detailed
feature stories and personal reflections bring into focus the
larger than life characters who helped mold our times for the
better, even when facing seemingly insurmountable odds in one of
our nation's most challenging economic regions. These meetings will
hold you spellbound and keep you turning pages as you explore the
writer's fascinating experiences.
