"The Great American Folk Music Diaspora" is an anthology written on the origins, development, and diversification of Appalachian Folk music. Though it bears no relation to my technical engineering skills, it does represent the fulfillment of requirements for my minor in music through an independent study. It was written over the period of a standard course and received an A+. It's structured as a collection of essays, each focused on an individual song or performance, illustrating the breadths and depths the genre has created and built over time.
