You really get a sense of place when Wellman writes about the mountains and the inhabitants thereof. The title refers to an Appalachian saying referring to hidden places way back in the hills. For example, when one wants to describe a place as way off the beaten track, one will say it's a place where, "owls hoot in the daytime and where they have possums for yard-dogs." ( )
