"HIS HOSPITALITY HAS WON FOR HIM MANY LIFELONG FRIENDS" Leaders in Smoky Mountain History WRITERS of fiction and the purveyors of "feature" articles for the magazines have so long made a specialty of picturing the Southern mountaineer as a grizzly old bewhiskered moonshiner and feudist, living in constant defiance of law and civilization, that the average American who knows no better is accustomed to thinking of him as a menace to society! Such misrepresentation, based on the character of a few as indicative of the mode of living of every male inhabitant of the Southern highlands, is as unjust as it is ridiculous to those who know the real character of these good people. "The frontier cabin of America should be emblazoned on her coat of arms," says Robert Lindsay Mason, author of "The Lure of the Great Smokies." Continuing, this writer says the cabin is the emblem of the American, because it is like no other cabin on earth; that it appeals to every true American and awakens visions of upstanding men, fearless fighters, determined homemakers, invincible republic builders. "At once it suggests danger, hardship, endurance and courage; it suggests clean-mindedness and good citizenship," he says. He then recalls many famous Americans born in these cabins, some of whom were Jackson, Lincoln, Boon, Shelby, Robertson, Crockett, Houston, Blount, Custer, McKinley, and Xavier. Mr. Mason adds: "Practically all of our frontier leaders of the Old South came from humble cabins, and certainly all the leaders in Smoky Mountain history lived in them. As these cabins were in the thrilling days of Xavier, Boon and- Crockett, so are they yet in the Great Smokies." What a vindication of the Southern mountaineer, with his whiskers and his moonshine! And those who know him best are those who love him best—those who have tramped the wildwoods with him, hunting, fishing and camping, an association that always brings out the best that is in a man, because he is then so close to Nature—they know that the Smoky Mountains native is, as a rule, a law-abiding, God-fearing citizen, whose quaint philosophy and manner of reasoning, and whose hospitality have won for him many lifelong friends among the people of the lower lands who are often his guests.

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.
