PROMINENT LEADERS IN THE MOVEMENT TO ESTABLISH THE GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK An Appreciation THOUSANDS of men, women, boys and girls of Tennessee and North Carolina have contributed money, time and effort to help establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Many of them deserve public recognition. But on this page only four of the outstanding leaders in the movement are presented: The late Governor Austin Peay of Tennessee; Col. W. B. Townsend, president of the Little River Lumber Company, of Townsend, Tennessee; Mr. W. P. Davis, president of the Great Smoky Mountains Conservation Association, and Col. D. C. Chapman, chairman of the board of this organization. Governor Peay was chief executive of the State when the Tennessee legislature authorized the purchase of land to form the nucleus of the Park, the late governor having been for a long time a most enthusiastic supporter of the plan to establish the Park. However, the purchase was made possible only through the generous terms of Col. Townsend, representing the Little River Lumber Company, from whom the land was purchased. Mr. Davis has worked untiringly for years in the interest of the Park, his optimism, courage and ability having been a great factor in the consummation of the idea. Col. Chapman has undoubtedly been the most persistent and efficient laborer for the cause, and the moving spirit behind the entire enterprise. His tireless and unceasing efforts have been rewarded, not only with the realization of the dream of a great national park in the Smokies, backed by the States of Tennessee and North Carolina and the Congress of the United States as well as a five million dollar contribution by the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial, but also by the high esteem in which he is held by the people of all sections adjacent to the Park and many prominent people of the country. To these gentlemen the South, the nation, the world owes a debt of gratitude, and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park will attest their worth throughout the coming years.

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.
