Confession: I checked out this book from the library when I was way too busy to read it. It went back before I had a chance to crack it open. But I am going to read it soon's I'm on vacation.

I am an Appalachian, and I love American history. But this is a book by historians, not historical non-fiction writers. It is academic, and dry. I tried, but couldn't get through the introduction without feeling my eyelids get heavy.
