"This book instructs what it means to be always a woman if you are poor, if you are proud, and when you are a hillbilly."First published in 1973, Skye Moody's Hillbilly Women shares the beautiful and raw dental histories of 19 ladies in 20th-century Southern Appalachia, of their day-to-day struggles for survival to the personal triumphs of their hardscrabble existence. They are simply wives, widows, and daughters of coal miners; stock hands, cigarette graders, silk cotton mill staff, and farmers; and women who value honest labor, self-esteem, and dignity. Shining a much-needed light into a misunderstood culture and id, the experiences within mirror the universally individuals battle to live significant and dignified lives.
