FROM THE NESTOR OF THE APPALACHIAN TRAIL Knoxville, Tennessee November 15, 1933 Miss Margaret Broome, Chairman, Handbook Committee, Smoky Mountains Hiking Club. Dear Margaret: I am happy to respond to your kind request to write some words of greeting for your Handbook, especially so in view of my pleasing experience with so many of your Club members during my recent illness here in Knoxville. These members, with one or two exceptions, were practically unknown to me on my arrival here early in the autumn season. Never till this season had I failed to contact in the open glory of the autumn wilderness, but not till now had there been bestowed on me the greatest measure of such glory. Though the mountain was not moved unto Mohomet the wilderness was brought unto your Nestor. Through bedside calls and messages you and your Clubmates instilled the radiant October fresh from the heights of Gregory's Bald; and a little segment of the Appalachian Trail itself (extracted by the artist hand of Brockway Crouch) attended my journey back to health. Thus friendships came where names had been before. Friendship is a hard thing to define. To me it is a portion of creation held in common. Our special portion (yours and mine) we call the wilderness—the portion untarnished by act of man. Such is our common bond. To cherish it (even as human fellowship itself)—such is our common goal. 10
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

In 1926, the Smoky Mountains Hiking Club began to print an annual handbook that outlined scheduled hikes for each month of the year, including winter. This 1934 handbook was collected by George Masa (1881-1933), a photographer active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Smoky Mountains Hiking Club was formed after a group of outdoor enthusiasts hiked up to Mount LeConte in October 1924. Enjoying the spectacular views, the group returned to establish a formal hiking club to sponsor regularly-scheduled hikes into the Great Smoky Mountains.
