And here are a couple more from another eager reader

  • The classic Coal Creek song is Uncle Dave Macon's "Roll Down the Line." Uncle Dave ("The Dixie Dewdrop," 1870-1952) grew up in his parents' Nashville boarding house for traveling show biz people. He plays banjo in a flashy, vaudeville-influenced, now-archaic style. You can read more about the song in Archie Green's Only a Miner.
  • Douglas Blackmon'sSlavery by Another Name is an excellent study of the convict leasing system. If you haven't got time to read a 468-page book, there's also an excellent PBS documentary on the subject.
