Description
Book SynopsisFor sheer beauty and tranquility, nothing equals the flora, fauna, rivers, and lakes of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah Valley. But this region--once home to Thomas Jefferson and Booker T. Washington--is also rich in history and culture. This guide details everything this area has to offer for longtime residents, visitors, and retirees.
