One of the most interesting and least known subcultures in American ethnic studies is the Appalachian mountaineer. The least known of this group is the Blue Ridge subculture. Why? Because the mountain man who lived there was forced out when Shenandoah National Park was formed in the 1930's.
Carolyn and Jack Reeder, (property owners in Rappahannock County) have made a study of that period in history and as a result have produced a tight but fascinating book about the people who used to live there, their 19th century way of life, and what became of them when Shenandoah National Park was formed. The book, called Shenandoah Heritage: The Story of the People Before the Park, is full of pictures of the period, statistics culled from National Archives, Park and personal records, and interesting commentary from the people living today who used to live in the Park’s worn mountains.
