"This book explores the parallels and connections between Scotland and Southern Appalachia, with special attention to the interplay between revivals of folk culture, native languages, and dialects in Scotland and Appalachia since the 1970s. It covers modern-day Scottish and Appalachian cultural movements, and identity politics, and offers numerous references to the literature of Appalachia and Scotland."--BOOK JACKET.
