Customer Reviews

A wonderful book

Our family thought this book was wonderful. My mother grew up in the Cumberland area while the dam was being built and we still have relatives there to this day. This book gives a delightful "feel" to the feeling of family and love that was so typical there during that time. It also gives an accurate depiction of the pain that progress may cause for those in it's path.

GREAT!

I think this is a great book! It talks about Lake Cumberland being formed. It made me realize what life was like before the Wolf Creek Dam was built. I enjoyed reading this book very much and think you will too, especially if you live near where the setting was like me.
