Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Signed by the author, VERY GOOD+, gently read if at all. Light wear on cover. 222 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm. . . . . . . . A collection of short, closely observed pieces about life in northeast Tennessee, especially around the Long Island community of Kingsport. The book reflects on family, pla…ce, and memory, using the recurring metaphor of apples and the saying "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree* to explore how people are shaped by their roots and hometown landscapes. The vignettes blend local history, personal recollection, and regional character sketches, giving a portrait of Kingsportâ"sometimes called the *Little Apple* through everyday scenes and remembered stories. Moore's tone is reflective and affectionate, and the book reads as a literary scrapbook of people, streets, and landmarks that define the community's identity in the Appalachian South.
