Description

Welcome to the ancient, rumpled realm of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
 
With over 100 full-color photographs, plus detailed maps and firsthand information, this Park Profile is the preeminent book at the region. Author Ron Fisher and photographer Richard Cooke guide you through the gentle mountains that rise in a sky-wash haze from Pennsylvania to northern Georgia. The New River, The united states’s oldest stream, flows across all of the range even as a 470-mile continuous span of skyline road leads from Shenandoah National Park to Great Smokey Mountains National Park. Seven national forests harbor 130 species of trees and an astonishing diversity of mosses, fungi, flowering plants, and natural world. Meet Cherokee Indians who continue the artistic traditions of their ancestors in addition to descendants of European settlers who developed their own lasting heritage of folk crafts.
 
Each and every National Geographic Park Profile captures the wonderful thing about one of the vital United States’ beloved national parks. Other installments in the series include books at the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
