River of Earth by James Still is significant as a powerful depiction of life in Appalachian Kentucky during the early 20th century. It provides a vivid portrayal of the struggles of a coal-mining family torn between the transient, harsh demands of coal camp life and the desire for a stable, agrarian existence. The novel is praised for its authentic, poetic language and its exploration of themes like poverty, survival, and the human connection to the land, making it an essential work in Appalachian literature.
