Summary of New River Gorge

This book tells the story of the oldest river in North America, ironically named the New River, and the deep gorge it carved in West Virginia. Once exploited for its coal and timber, the gorge is now being reclaimed by nature. Thousands of people annually enjoy the splendid scenery and recreational resources of New River Gorge National River, Gauley River National Recreation Area, and Bluestone National Scenic River. Forty-three splendid color photographs, twelve black and white historical photographs, and four line drawings evoke the beauty of this scenic area and enhance descriptions in the text. The book measures 8-1/2 X 11 inches and has forty pages and a laminated paper cover.
