My maternal grandmother's Foxfire books—back in the '70s—started my Appalachian obsession!
Most folks don't realize that life was/is, in many ways, similar, for some, here in northern Appalachia.
My paternal grandparents lived a very simple life—as did their ancestors.
It's still a thing.
I've been in hollows, fairly recently, here in the southern tier of New York state and northern tier of Pennsylvania that aren't much different than hollows in the south.
