Written by Carrie Hunter Willis and Etta Belle Walker, these true stories trace the settlement of the Shenandoah Valley and the hills along today’s Skyline Drive. They tell of Governor Spotswood’s Knights of the Golden Horseshoe, the pioneer Joist Hite, German and Scotch-Irish settlers, Indian raids and the Moore massacre, Lord Fairfax and young Washington, and the Valley in the Civil War.
A pleasant companion for visitors to Shenandoah National Park and for anyone interested in Virginia’s frontier. Download the free EPUB.
