Produktinformationen "A Knight of the Cumberland"

A Knight of the Cumberland is a compact romance of the Appalachian borderlands, shaped by John Fox Jr.'s characteristic fusion of local-color realism and courtly idealism. Set among the rugged Cumberland Mountains, the tale transforms a regional love story into a meditation on honor, loyalty, and social transition. Fox's prose is atmospheric and pictorial, attentive to dialect, landscape, and inherited codes of conduct, while its chivalric title signals the persistence of old heroic values within a distinctly American frontier setting. John Fox Jr. was one of the most influential literary interpreters of the Kentucky and Virginia mountain regions at the turn of the twentieth century. Born in Kentucky and trained as both a journalist and observer of sectional culture, he wrote with intimate knowledge of Appalachian terrain, clan loyalties, and post-Civil War tensions. His fiction often seeks to reconcile romance with ethnographic detail, making mountain life legible to a national readership. Readers drawn to regional American fiction, historical romance, and early twentieth-century portrayals of Appalachia will find this book rewarding. It offers not only a graceful narrative of devotion and character, but also a revealing glimpse into the literary imagination that helped define the Cumberland Mountains for generations of readers.
