"This manuscript discusses the literary works of several West Virginia writers and how their fiction, characters, and novel settings reflect the values of this distinctively Appalachian state. Creasman also discusses varying gender roles and working class West Virginians in fiction by writers such as Breece and Ann Pancake, Benedict, McKinney, Settle, and Giardina, among others, and how these roles are often reflected in literature from West Virginia's writing community" --
