Description: "One of the first books to examine environmental activism case studies in the South, this insider's view is both academically rigorous and highly personal - its scholar-activist author is a member of Friends of Terrapin Creek, one of the groups featured in the book.

Drawing upon qualitative data from oral histories and the papers of grassroots organizations, Suzanne Marshall gives voice to ordinary southerners who created activist networks in rural Georgia, North Carolina, and Alabama - a region of southern Appalachia often ignored by scholars."--BOOK JACKET.
