"Men, women, boys and girls - each possessing the hardy individualism and sterling qualities necessary to a pioneer spirit - crossed the rugged Appalachian mountains to fight disease, misfortune, and wild animals. When they reached the hunting ground favored by the Indians - a land of legend - they liked it."
-Joyce Wilson, This was Yesterday: A Romantic History of Owsley County
