Book Description

A touching tale of Family and Place. An heiress to one of the South's lumber dynasties reaches out to her mountain roots for solace after suffering a life-shattering blow, only to be drawn into a struggle to redeem the legacy of a father she's never known. Against the backdrop of North Carolina's beautiful Hickory Nut Gorge emerges a moving story of love, family and longing. Hayden Taylor starts to heal in the womb of the gorge and the edgy exhilaration of Asheville, never suspecting the man who killed her father was stalking her. Football legend, Ben Beckham, is looking for redemption too, and tries to earn it working for a local land trust, only to discover he's falling in love with a woman he can't have.

Book Description

This volume sheds new light on the geography and the history of the Chimney Rock Archaeological Area in southwestern Colorado. Home until the mid-twelfth century to the ancestral Pueblo peoples, the Chaco Canyon and Chimney Rock area holds a wealth of information for present-day archaeologists to uncover. This collection investigates the architecture, location, and alignment of Pueblo great houses and the significant features of designed clay feather holders. The contributors suggest varied pre-historical uses for the towering double spires of Chimney Rock: as a logging camp, military garrison, home of Chacoan priests, astronomical observatory, and/or ceremonial-pilgrimage center. Chimney Rock: The Ultimate Outlier is a model of multi-faceted inquiry into a physically intriguing and certainly symbol-laden ancient North American residential site.

Book Description

From the opening of Chimney Rock Park by Jerome Freeman in 1890 to Dr. Lucius Morse's dreams for Lake Lure in the 1920s, the development of tourism in the Hickory Nut Gorge area is one of the untold stories of the region's history. For much of the 19th century, the area was remote and known to few; Freeman was perhaps the first to truly appreciate Chimney Rock's potential, but it took the invention of the automobile and the completion of the Charlotte to Asheville Highway in 1915 for that potential to be fully realized. By the 1920s, Chimney Rock Park and the gorge's hotels and summer camps were known to thousands. In 2007, the State of North Carolina purchased Chimney Rock Park from the Morse family, and a new chapter began.

Book Description

Sonnets are among the most widely recognized of poetic forms, dating back almost a thousand years. In this book, Michael R. Collings blends past tradition with contemporary experimentation, public commentary with private meditation, lyric compression with epic breadth, rigid structure with "nuclear-fused sonnets, free radicals, one electron away from exploding." As Robert Reginald says: "Once again Collings shows that 'traditional' does not have to mean 'staid, ' and that all things are possible with imaginative word-play of the highest order. Great fun, great reading, GREAT poetry "

Book Description

THE WIND IN THE WOODS is a Romantic Thriller that will take you into Tiger Morrison's world of inspiring young minds with the wonders of nature; his daughter's commitment to hike the Blue Ridge, never suspecting that a serial killer is stalking her; and the overly protected nine-year-old, Alvin Magee's, heart-warming discovery of freedom and responsibility in a place apart from his adult world. Charismatic widower, Tiger Morrison, spent a lifetime saving children from nature-deficit disorder, only to find himself in the fight of his life to protect his undisturbed world from the land grab waging in the Southern Blue Ridge Mountains. He's fighting to win Katie Warlick too, but she can't forgive him for not wanting her the way she wanted him twenty years ago.
