The narrative vividly captures the essence of Burnside, Kentucky, a once-thriving town now submerged under Lake Cumberland. Harriet Simpson Arnow reflects on her childhood experiences from 1913, painting a picture of a bustling community filled with rail and steamboat activity, alongside the charm of local stores and the grandeur of the Seven Gables Hotel. Through her memories, she intertwines personal anecdotes with the broader historical context, celebrating a way of life that has largely vanished while highlighting its significance in Kentucky's heritage.
