Adding Appalachian voices to the larger ecocritical discourse is vital, not only for the sake of increased diversity, but also to allow those unfamiliar with the region and its works to better understand the Appalachian region in a critical and authentic way. Including Appalachia in the larger ecocritical community allows for the study of how the region, its issues, and its texts intersect with a variety of communities, opening up boundless possibilities for learning and analysis"--  |c Provided by publisher.
