Gorgeous photographs, interesting text
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
The text relates the history of the Blue Ridge Parkway, from initial conception through to completion, which actually didn't happen until 1983 with the opening of the Linn Cove Viaduct. That is interesting enough, but the real merits of this book are in the gorgeous photographs, which stretch all along the length of the Parkway and cover all seasons and moods. Organized in milepost order, they brought back fond memories of the places I've visited (Peaks of Otter, Mabry Mill) and hopes to visit all the rest someday.
Wonderful Essay and Photography
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a book I've turned to often as an inspiration for photographing the Blue Ridge mountains. The writing is very good and informative. The pictures are stunning. A good introduction for someone who is thinking about going to the BR Parkway and needs some guidance. A pleasure to own this book.
