Capturing the enduring beauty of the Appalachian mountains where she sets her novels, Sharyn McCrumb returns with a beautifully written, historically accurate tale of a song's passage through history-from the 1700s to the present, from the shores of Scotland to western North Carolina...where a folksinger longs to rediscover its haunting tune.

Great book. I've learned a lot about the Appalachians from reading her books.

I had a hard time getting into this book because it jumped around too much. I don't think the characters were developed enough and if there was a plot, I had trouble following it.
