Though Buck wrote various kinds of novels, his most famous writings are those in which he drew upon his own background and experiences in law and/or the Kentucky mountains. Buck formulated his themes by using revenge, romance, and struggles with the law amongst his characters. The Roof Tree begins: Between the smoke-darkened walls of the mountain cabin still murmured the last echoes of the pistol�������s bellowing, and it seemed a voice of everlasting duration to the shock-sickened nerves of those within. First it had thundered with the deafening exaggeration of confined space, then its echo had beaten against the clay-chink wall timbers and rolled upward to the rafters. Now, dwindled to a ghostly whisper, it lingered and persisted.
