A chronicle of the history of the border states and a candid report on those places today--where the Civil War is still a bitter heritage and poverty a way of life. Amongthe highlights are text and picture essays on Appalachia, native handicrafts, the Tennessee Valley Authority, country music, and the horse farms of Kentucky.
