Appalachia, race, and pluralism -- Evangelizing an Anglo equality (1883-1908) -- New York City's cultural pluralists (1906-1930) -- Reactionary regionalism versus critical quarterlies (1925-1945) -- The social life of poetry -- Racing the land with Jesse Stuart's Man with a bull tongue plow (1934) -- "Authentic folk feeling" in James Still's Hounds on the mountain (1937) -- Rebinding "The book of the dead" into Muriel Rukeyser's U.S. 1 (1938) -- The tight rope of democracy and Don West's Clods of southern earth (1946).

From Jewish publishers to Appalachian poets, Green's cultural study reveals the role of "Mountain Whites" in American racial history. Part One (1880-1935) explores the networks that created American pluralism, revealing Appalachia's essential role in shaping America's understanding of AfricanAmericans, Anglos, Jews, Southerners, and Immigrants. Drawing upon archival research and deft closereadings of poems, Part Two (1934-1946) delves into the inner-workings of literary history and showshow diverse alliances used four books of poetry about Appalachia to change America's notion of race, region, and pluralism. Green starts withhow Jesse Stuart and the Agrarians' defended Southern whiteness, follows how James Still appealed to liberals, shows how Muriel Rukeyser put Appalachia at thecenter of anti-fascism, and ends with how Don West and the Progressives' struggled to form interracial labor unions in the South.
