Remembering Highlands: From Pioneer Village to Mountain Retreat (American Chronicles)
- Used Book in Good Condition
Highlands, NC, is not just home to cool mountain breezes, breathtaking views and world-class shopping and restaurants- it also boasts a rich and vibrant history. What started as the dream of two developers in 1875 has grown from a tiny hamlet into a home and a home-away-from-home for many. Join sixth-generation Highlands native Isabel Hall Chambers and her husband, Overton Chambers, as they share charming tales of old Highlands, from lazy summer days playing 'town ball' to ice-skating and celebrating Christmas. Woven into this collection of articles from the Laurel are true stories from some of the area's grand old homes, its traditions and an array of interesting residents and visitors throughout the years as told by fathers and grandfathers, old postcards, letters, deeds and even tombstones. Everyone who loves this unique mountain community will delight in Remembering Highlands.
