My Faulty Mountain Cradle: Growing Up Rich on Pound River

By Kelly S. Vanover

Childhood in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains during the 1960s and 70s was an event far removed from that which children experience today. It was equal parts play and work. Kelly Vanover spent his formative years in a culture that was not only unique during that time but is now lost completely. In his memoir, Vanover retells the adventures he and his brother Keeron created as boys living beside the Pound River in Clintwood, Virginia. The story follows his life to his marriage in 1984 and is his attempt to recreate for his daughter the world that made him into the father he became.
