We have heard it said, "The Lord works in mysterious ways." Although worded differently, Romans 11:33-36 illustrates that concept: "Who has known the mind of the Lord?" The passages speak about the richness of how God works. Through realism as well as illusionary moments, God is working through people in dreams, and at times, through Mr. Samuels's fear and confusion. In The Long-Nosed Rooter, the Samuels family sees some of the mysterious works of the Lord in the way he answered their prayers. Mr. Samuels goes from uncertainty to understanding that something just wasn't right. From fear to determination. From homelessness, hopelessness, and unemployment to having a job and a place of his own to share with his family. The story illustrates the scriptures of "seeking God first, and the rest will be added unto you" (Matthew 6:33). The story all takes place in an entertaining manner. The Long-Nosed Rooter is suspenseful at times, funny at times, and mysterious. I am sure it is a story the young and young at heart will want to read and tell over and over at family gatherings.
Reprint of the original, first published in 1877.
The Dictionary of Southern Appalachian English is a revised and expanded edition of the Weatherford Award–winning Dictionary of Smoky Mountain English, published in 2005 and known in Appalachian studies circles as the most comprehensive reference work dedicated to Appalachian vernacular and linguistic practice. Editors Michael B. Montgomery and Jennifer K. N. Heinmiller document the variety of English used in parts of eight states, ranging from West Virginia to Georgia—an expansion of the first edition's geography, which was limited primarily to North Carolina and Tennessee—and include over 10,000 entries drawn from over 2,200 sources. The entries include approximately 35,000 citations to provide the reader with historical context, meaning, and usage. Around 1,600 of those examples are from letters written by Civil War soldiers and their family members, and another 4,000 are taken from regional oral history recordings. Decades in the making, the Dictionary of Southern Appalachian English surpasses the original by thousands of entries. There is no work of this magnitude available that so completely illustrates the rich language of the Smoky Mountains and Southern Appalachia.
