Now available! KJF collected ballads in the hills of Kentucky in 1909, but was unsuccessful in her publishing attempts. The reasons why form an intriguing stew of gender roles, power structures, broken trust, and outright theft. Her ballads appear here for the first time, along with the full story of her remarkable life as a Ph.D. (Columbia U, 1906), scholar, and professor.
