y^ :-Zi;::&fi:;Y- I ill ili ill'III WM RUGGED SCENERY SEEMS TO NEVER END IN THIS REGION OF WONDERLAND Great Variety of Scenery ONE OF THE chief attractions of the Great Smoky Mountains is the great variety of scenery and other natural attractions among them. From the valleys, where one "looks up;" from the hills and ridges, where one can "see around;" from the peaks and crests, where one seems to be "on top of the world"— from wherever the view, it is ever different and changing. Commenting on the marvelous panoramic view he beheld from the top of LeConte, Professor C. H. Longwell, of Princeton University, said: "I was born in the Rocky Mountains and reared to contemplate the glorious colors of the scenery. I have stood on the snow-crowned summits of northern Greece and watched rivers glide by at their base and can well understand how the ancient Greeks were the greatest lovers of beauty of all time. I have seen the Bay of Naples from the top of Vesuvius, and revelled in the beauty of the sunset which bathed the ships in gold. I have looked upon the 'Alps' of Japan, and was entranced with the Hawaiian Islands. The Grand Canyon, as it winds through Arizona into New 'Mexico overwhelmed me. Still not satisfied in my craving for natural beauty I went a hundred miles into Old Mexico, and gazed upon that great lake nestled in the mountains. After all these experiences I looked from the summit of Mount LeConte. It was wholly unique; in its blending of color, its multiplicity of outline, enveloped in that fairy, ghostlike veil and haze, there is nothing else on the face of the earth like it." Very few have traversed the crest of the Great Smokies from end to end, but those who have, and those who have been so fortunate as to be able to view the various ranges from the numerous peaks and other points of vantage, have all been impressed, as Professor Long- well was, with the "multiplicity of outline," and the Copyright, Jim Thompson Co. „>. . • . e sunrise on mount LeConte Sreat variety of scenery.

Description

Although the title of this 84-page book includes the phrase, “Great Smoky Mountains National Park,” the book was actually published well before the park was a reality. Filled with photographs of striking landscapes, waterfalls, trails, and streams, no doubt, the book was intended to help promote the idea of a park in the Smokies. Created by the Great Smoky Mountains Conservation Association, the book also includes prominent buildings in towns surrounding the park.
