reviewed Hill Folks: A History of Arkansas Ozarkers and Their Image on February 24, 2009 Hill Folks: A History of Arkansas Ozarkers and Their Image
This book fills a void as the first in-depth history of northern Arkansas. Reviewer Lee Kirk aptly describes this as "a useful explanation of what was going on in the Ozarks while Vance Randolph and others were scouring the hills for the old stories and songs, a movement that led to the Dogpatch image that the rest of the world has come to know" (Ozarks Monthly). Dr. Blevins describes the geography and chronicles the settlement, lives of the people, and economic development of the region. He includes details of in-and-outward migration, agriculture, mining and lumber industries, and the rise of the tourist industry. (lj)
