The Hillbilly Dictionary: Backwoods Lingo Straight from the Holler, by Grandpa Ripley
Ever felt like the English language done lost its backbone somewhere 'twixt the skyscrapers and the suburbs? Well, pull up a stump and listen up, 'cause Grandpa Ripley— that weather-beaten sage with a chew of Red Man and a lifetime of ridge-runnin' under his galluses— is fixin' to set it right with The Hillbilly Dictionary.
This here's a straight-shootin' guide to the raw, rambunctious tongue of the Appalachians, penned by a feller who knows the value of a well-timed spit and the peril of a loose lip. No high-falutin' footnotes or city-slicker edits; just pure, unadulterated mountain mouth music that captures the spirit of folks who wrangle with the land and laugh in the face of fancy.
