Zusammenfassung:"For more than two decades, hikers on the Appalachian Trail in Virginia walked through some of the most beautiful landscapes of the southern mountains. Then, in 1952, the Appalachian Trail Conference moved the trail more than fifty miles to the west. Lost in that move were opportunities to scramble over the Pinnacles of Dan, to sit on Fisher's Peak and gaze out over the North Carolina Piedmont or to cross the New River on a flat-bottomed boat called Redbird for a nickel. Historian and lifelong hiker Mills Kelly tells the story of a three-hundred-mile section of the Appalachian Trail that is all but forgotten by hikers, but not by the residents of the Southwestern Virginia counties that the trail used to cross." -- Back cover
