This 28-page book, “Study for the Preservation of Mountain Culture,” was written by Charles S. Grossman (1900-1972) for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. An architect by trade, Grossman worked with the Civilian Conservation Corps, but spent most of his time on historic preservation. In the 1930s, he began an inventory of existing structures in the park, cataloguing more than 1,500 structures. This 1937 report highlighted the results of the historic buildings survey and advocated for a “policy or program to preserve this wealth of material” before “it is destroyed and lost.” Grossman rightfully concluded that much could be learned about pioneer life from studying its material culture.
