Highland County

Více o knize

Highland County, known as "Virginia's Little Switzerland," features a unique blend of isolation and community spirit shaped by its early German and Scotch Irish settlers. Officially formed in 1847 from parts of Bath and Pendleton Counties, this region's high altitude and low population fostered a strong sense of individualism. The book captures its rich history through photographs spanning the 19th century to the present, illustrating both the rural roots and modern developments of the county and its resilient inhabitants.
