Abstract:
Images of mountain living in western North Carolina were depicted in Margaret Morley’s 1913 book, The Carolina Mountains. The image Morley conveyed to her readers was of a vanishing Golden Age in the Southern Appalachians. She wrote about the distinct folk life of the mountaineers, and how they may be the last link between the present and the past.
