ISBN-13: 978-0-87049-933-3, ISBN: 0-87049-933-5

"Antebellum Southern Appalachia has long been seen as a classless and essentially slaveless region - one so alienated and isolated from other parts of the South that, with the onset of the Civil War, highlanders opposed both secession and Confederate war efforts.
