Dunaway (public and international affairs, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State U.) investigates the multi-ethnic majority of females who resided between 1700 and 1860 in the Appalachian Mountains from West Virginia south to Alabama and Virginia and the Carolinas east to Kentucky and Tennessee. She compares women's economic activities and their challenges to patriarchy across racial, ethnic, and class cleavages, in the context of slavery amid a non-slaveholding majority, a large surplus of poor white landless laborers, and small Cherokee and free black populations.
