About this book

Salvation On Sand Moutain: Snake Handling And Redemption In Southern Appalachia by Covington, Dennis. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780201622928.

The people of Southern Appalachia are hill people of Scottish-Irish descent--religious mystics who cast out demons, drink strychnine, and handle rattlesnakes. When the author, himself Scottish-Irish, uncovers records of snake-handling Covingtons, he decides to take up serpents himself. The result is Flannery OConnor, Carson McCullers and Garrison Keillor all rolled into one quirky, unforgettable read.
