Trade and Travel around the Southern Appalachians before 1830

Truett has undertaken a study of the earliest history of America using as his foundation the Indian trails and traces and the trading paths of the early settlers. It is a sympathetic portrayal of the people who traveled these roads, of the inns and taverns at which they were entertained, and of their uniquely adapted modes of conveyance.
