Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Excursion Guide of the Virginia Midland Railway: The Short-Line Through-Car Route Between the North and South, the Virginia Springs, Western North Carolina and North Georgia Summer Resorts The aim of this publication is to give the reader, in brief space and compact form, some idea of what the Virginia Midland Railway presents in its course from the capital of the nation to its terminus at Danville, on the border of North Carolina. First, to show that the Midland Railway is the natural and proper outlet of that huge volume of travel which the Baltimore & Ohio and the Pennsylvania Railroads pour into Washington City. Second, to demonstrate (as the schedules appended to this volume prove) that it is the Short Line, par excellence, of travel traffic from North to South, and vice versa. Third, to establish beyond dispute, that no other route to the great watering places of Virginia and the sublime scenery of Western North Carolina can compete with the Virginia Midland Railway. Fourth, to place in clear light before the reader of whatever character tourist, health-seeker, investor, miner, farmer - the attractive nature of a route which, from beginning to end, pursues the beautiful and airy uplands that lie at the base of the Blue Ridge and other Virginia mountains. The physical features of this region so blessed of heaven, its history, its battlefields, its water-courses, its farming lands, its pastures and meadows, its mines, minerals and ores, its towns and villages, its industries, its orchards and its vineyards - in brief, all that pertains to its past and present, or at least so much of it as may be compressed into a half an hour's reading on the train or at the station, will herein be found. From Washington we go to Alexandria, there to muse a while amidst the ancient churches and storied dwellings that tell of Washington and his compeers.

Download or read book Blue Ridge Commons written by Kathryn Newfont and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the late twentieth century, residents of the Blue Ridge mountains in western North Carolina fiercely resisted certain environmental efforts, even while launching aggressive initiatives of their own. Kathryn Newfont provides context for those events by examining the environmental history of this region over the course of three hundred years, identifying what she calls commons environmentalism--a cultural strain of conservation in American history that has gone largely unexplored. Efforts in the 1970s to expand federal wilderness areas in the Pisgah and Nantahala national forests generated strong opposition. For many mountain residents the idea of unspoiled wilderness seemed economically unsound, historically dishonest, and elitist. Newfont shows that local people's sense of commons environmentalism required access to the forests that they viewed as semipublic places for hunting, fishing, and working. Policies that removed large tracts from use were perceived as 'enclosure' and resisted. Incorporating deep archival work and years of interviews and conversations with Appalachian residents, Blue Ridge Commons reveals a tradition of people building robust forest protection movements on their own terms."--p. [4] of cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Southern Appalachians are home to a breathtakingly diverse array of living things--from delicate orchids to carnivorous pitcher plants, from migrating butterflies to flying squirrels, and from brawny black bears to more species of salamander than anywhere else in the world. Mountain Nature is a lively and engaging account of the ecology of this remarkable region. It explores the animals and plants of the Southern Appalachians and the webs of interdependence that connect them. Within the region's roughly 35 million acres, extending from north Georgia through the Carolinas to northern Virginia, exists a mosaic of habitats, each fostering its own unique natural community. Stories of the animals and plants of the Southern Appalachians are intertwined with descriptions of the seasons, giving readers a glimpse into the interlinked rhythms of nature, from daily and yearly cycles to long-term geological changes. Residents and visitors to Great Smoky Mountains or Shenandoah National Parks, the Blue Ridge Parkway, or any of the national forests or other natural attractions within the region will welcome this appealing introduction to its ecological wonders.
