Up on a mountain where the fog curls like lazy hounds and the hollers echo with fiddle tunes older than the memory of trees, lives Wade Deeper. Wade is the kind of man who makes outsiders scratch their heads in wonder. A sixth-generation Appalachian who has never once stepped off the mountain, he is as rugged as the granite ridges, as strong as a team of draft horses, and as baffling as a raccoon trying to open a moonshine jar.
To his family and friends, Wade is brilliant-a living encyclopedia of critters, weather signs, edible roots, and the ways of the forest. To outsiders, he is a loveable fool, a man who believes thunder is "cloud bears fightin'" and insists that hollering at fish makes them jump onto hooks faster. Yet whether you think him a philosopher or an idiot depends entirely on which side of his cabin porch you're standing.
This book is a comedy of the absurd, a romp through twelve misadventures where Wade collides with the modern world, outsiders, and nature itself. It is a celebration of Appalachian resilience, laughter, and the notion that wisdom doesn't always wear polished shoes-it sometimes trudges barefoot through mud with a grin.
