Book Synopsis
Contemporaries were shocked when author Mary Noailles Murfree revealed she was a woman, but modern readers may be more surprised by her cogent discussion of community responses to unwanted development.

Trade Review
“In examining the ‘tangled roots’ of ecological feminism, the author brings together a wealth of primary materials—archival documents such as journals, photographs, letters, and diaries and marginalized published work.… [T]he archival work is superb, and the modeling of feminist methodology is admirable.… Summing up: Highly recommended.” * Choice *
Only a superficial observer could fail to understand that the mountain people really love the wilderness—love it for its beauty, for its freedom. * The Spirit of the Mountains *
“Engelhardt’s book is readable, engaging, provocative...a notable contribution to the cultural history of Appalachia.”
