Reviews
In Gone Home , Brown fills the pages with stories of people who lived in Benham and Lynch; she uses many of their own words to express their lived experiences. In combining historical and sociological methodologies, Brown successfully shows that although physical elements of these Black communities in Appalachia have largely disappeared, the communities themselves still thrive in migrants' memories and their continued connections with one another.-- Journal of African American History, Like the best of such case studies, Brown's intimate portrait of African Americans' ties to a single place--much of it cast in the form of "back home" nostalgia--tells us much about their resilience and resourcefulness.-- Journal of American History, Brown is an engaging writer . . . This book provides insight into the interconnected issues of identity formation, social and geographic mobility, and the concept of homeplace, along with the effects of quality education and the movement of civil rights. Gone Home: Race and Roots through Appalachia does all of this superbly.-- Journal of Appalachian Studies, In this tale of the collective African-American search for a place to call home, Brown provides an insightful look at 20th-century American culture.-- Publishers Weekly, Karida L. Brown's work continues to complicate Appalachian history by surveying the lived experiences of black residents in Harlan County, Kentucky. . . . The personal stories of black Appalachians provide useful data for seasoned researchers.-- Journal of Southern History, Engaging. . . . By helping to make visible a population too long neglected, Karida L. Brown is doing work that is especially important today.-- American Historical Review
