Synopsis

Finding a Clear Path intertwines Appalachian literature, agriculture, and ecology as author Jim Minnick describes everything from the changing seasons to the beneficial black snakes. He takes the reader on many journeys, including a walk and a ?drive?. He also allows the reader to float, fly, gather, and grow. Using his background as a blueberry farmer and his own personal life experiences, Minick adds a touch home that will truly be enjoyed by those interested in the Appalachian region. Having studied ecology, Minick also introduces information that can be appreciated from a scientific point of view. Reading this collection of essays will allow you to relax into some armchair exploration of Appalachia or perhaps spark you to start some journeys of your own.
