About this product

Product Information

Drawing on her encounters and experiences as a federal social worker in the backwoods of the Ozarks in the 1930s, Catherine Barker described the Ozark mountaineers as ""lovable and pathetic and needy and self-satisfied and valiant"", declaring that the virtuous and independent people of the hills deserved a better way and a more abundant life.

Reviews
"Unlike Vance Randolph and other contemporaries whose work is marked by rural romanticism, Barker offers an unvarnished account of life in the Ozarks through its unflinching depiction of rural poverty. Although her book has largely been overlooked in the years since her death in 1961, Barker's account offers a rare glimpse of a pivotal time in the Ozarks for those who wish to better understand one of the most misunderstood regions in America." -- Missouri Historical Review , Vol. 114, No. 4, July 2020, "When Depression-era social worker Catherine S. Barker's Yesterday Today was first published in 1941 , she described her federal relief clients in the rural Arkansas Ozarks as 'people well worth knowing.' In this new edition , editor J. Blake Perkins provides an explanation of the life and times of Barker, shedding light on her filtered perceptions of 1930s Ozarkers struggling to make ends meet. Perkins shows us that Barker, too, was a person 'well worth knowing' and that Yesterday Today is a book well worth reading." --Susan Young, Shiloh Museum of Ozark History

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
