'Being of these hills,' James Still writes in his poem, Heritage, 'being one with the fox . . . I cannot pass beyond.' A thread that winds through the essays in this book is this notion of being able to take the boy out of the hills but not the hills out of the boy. The essays are not only about eastern Kentucky. They are about seeing and experiencing things through an eastern Kentucky filter no matter how far and wide the author has travelled.
