Description: Valley So Wild, A Folk History, by Alberta and Carson Brewer. First edition hardcover with dust jacket, 1975. Very good, like new condition. Dust jacket shows some minor shelf wear. Pages are clean, with no handwriting or any other marks inside. Text, photos and illustrations are all in great shape. Cover is good and binding is tight. Starting high in the Georgia Blue Ridge near Rabun Gap, the Little Tennessee River cuts a tortuous northwestward path 134 miles through North Carolina into Tennessee. The valley carved by the river is particularly rich in human value and physical grandeur; its engrossing history comes alive in Valley so Wild. From its prehistoric origins through 250 years of recorded history, the Little Tennessee River Valley's geography has remained remarkably unchanged. In this folk history, you will gain insight into the people of the valley, their daily lives, their ingenious artisanship, and the richness of their have-not culture. “A very popular and highly regarded volume includes the pre-colonial history of the 'Little Tennessee River' Watershed. Contracted by the TVS in 1969 as part of the Tellico Dam Project, the resulting manuscript was publish in 1975 and includes photos, maps and stories from this beloved portion of Appalachia."
