By the time you finish reading Welcome to the Country you'll know, likely, a fair bit more than you do now about the cultural traditions, unwritten codes of behavior, laws, and farming practices in rural Virginia, with particular attention to the ten-county Central Virginia heartland that straddles the Blue Ridge Mountains. If you're a newcomer to this region -- or indeed, to any predominantly rural region in Virginia -- this book will help you adapt to your surroundings and live harmoniously with your neighbors. If you're a native, reading this book will offer you a crisper understanding of the place you have longed called home. -- From publisher's description.
