Appalachian Summit is that region where the Southern Appalachian Mountains reach their greatest height.  The area includes all of western North Carolina and parts of eastern Tennessee.

Appalachian Summit: a documentary history, 1540-1900.   With the exception of short introductions, all of the text is drawn from primary sources. Rather than write a history of the area, I have attempted to let that history unfold in the words of those who experienced it.   

Exploration
Annotated travel journals and diaries tracing the routes of early exploration and settlement across the modern landscape from the Atlantic coast to the Appalachian Summit.
