Along the isolated headwaters of the Kentucky River Cutshin and Greasy creeks folklorist Leonard Roberts found the Couches, a remarkable mountain family of gifted memory and imagination. For half a century they had preserved the traditional ways of their forebears the farming methods, the household arts, and the games, ballads, dances, and tales that were their chief entertainment.
