Description

Now & Then: The Appalachian Magazine, Volume 29, Issue 01, published in 2013. The theme of this issue is Appalachian Industry. This issue traces the region's varied forms of labor from agriculture and craft production to manufacturing, resource extraction, and emerging local economies. It presents personal narratives and historical accounts that connect work to identity, emphasizing how industry has shaped daily life, family structures, and community values. Attention is given to wartime production, scientific research, and industrial expansion, as well as to smaller scale and evolving enterprises such as craft markets, food production, and tourism. The issue also considers the decline or transformation of certain industries alongside efforts to reclaim land, support local economies, and adapt to changing conditions. By bringing together past and present experiences of work, the volume reflects the central role of industry in defining Appalachian life and its ongoing influence on the region's economic and cultural landscape.
