John Fox Jr. published this great romantic novel of the Cumberland
Mountains of Kentucky and Virginia in 1908, and the book quickly
became one of America's favorites. It has all the elements of a
good romance -- a superior but natural heroine, a hero who is an
agent of progress and enlightenment, a group of supposedly
benighted mountaineers to be drawn into the flow of mainstream
American culture, a generous dose of social and class struggle, and
a setting among the misty coves and cliffs of the blue Cumberlands.
Reprinted with a foreword by John Ed Pearce, The Trail of the
Lonesome Pine has all the excitement and poignance that caught and
held readers' interest when the book first appeared.
