All together, the writings pay tribute to the diverse inhabitants of the Great Smoky Mountains. \u003cbr\u003e Each section gathers writings under a single topic heading and progresses chronologically. The readings can thus be taken to document the slow progression of change up until the eve of the large-scale disruptions that would be wrought by the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in 1934.
