Mary Noailles Murfree's 'The bushwhackers & other stories' is a collection of short stories that delves into the lives of the people living in the Appalachian Mountains. Murfree's literary style is marked by a deep appreciation for the natural landscape and a keen understanding of the human condition. The stories in this collection are filled with rich descriptions of the mountains and valleys, as well as complex characters struggling with the challenges of mountain life. Written in the late 19th century, these stories provide a glimpse into a disappearing way of life and serve as a valuable record of Appalachian culture. Murfree's work is often compared to that of other regionalist writers such as Sarah Orne Jewett and Kate Chopin, highlighting her importance in American literary history. Mary Noailles Murfree, who wrote under the pseudonym Charles Egbert Craddock, was a native of Tennessee and spent much of her life exploring and documenting the customs and traditions of the Appalachian people. Her intimate knowledge of the region shines through in 'The bushwhackers & other stories', making it a must-read for anyone interested in Southern and regional literature. With its vivid imagery and authentic portrayal of mountain life, this collection offers a unique perspective on the human experience and a valuable addition to the literary canon.
