The author of this book:Jesse Stuart and Joe Clark"s photographic essay of the town Lynchburg, located where the Blue grass country meets the Cumberland Mountains of Tennessee. Known for the Jack Daniel distillery, the townspeople are loyal to their employer and to each other. But they are also "close-to-the land" people who farm, raise livestock , and enjoy diversions which have nothing at all to do with the distillery. For the most part. it is their lives outside of working hours that Clark and Stuart have chosen to reflect.
