There, at the wellspring of mountain music, he took up his guitar and assumed the journey that culminated in this book. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHarvey's essays measure out in words the four seasons of a life in music. Springtime pieces describe playing music in the log house of friends born and raised in the mountains or entering a banjo contest and losing with style. There are essays about fiddles and the devil, homemade instruments and homemade weapons, and a trip to England to trace mountain songs back to their elusive sources. As the book progresses into winter, the mood darkens, with pieces exploring the connection between music and resentment, loss, and death. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDescriptions of music, hills, and people blend into a rich harmony as Harvey explores where music has taken him--where, in fact, music can take any of us.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSteven Harvey is the author of three collections of personal essays: \"Lost in Translation,\" \"Bound for Shady Grove,\" (both Georgia), and \"A Geometry of Lilies.\" He lives in North Georgia, where he teaches English at Young Harris College.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.2 x 6.22 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 29, 2000\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47334206439673,"sku":"9780820321974","price":33.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/q1U2L1c2QV9780820321974_208a3e95-9891-42dc-ac34-b6160d2d5d6e.webp?v=1769648610","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/bound-for-shady-grove-hardcover-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
