Finally a mention of Asheville. Also this, “there was no factor more effective in committing the Appalachian elite to the defense of plantation slavery than the mountain resorts.”

Bar tram and Asbury in this section. Also, a brief rendering of how Qualla formed. Still reading little a very disjointed textbook that at times lacks human qualities.

Interesting how most Appalachian migration came from the northern colonies through valleys instead of from the coast.

Interesting intro looking at Wytheville as this epicenter of Appalachian study. Max Meadows seems like such a random spot to begin studying the entirety of Appalachia. I like it.
