Więcej o książce

The transformation of a rural farming community into a vibrant recreational hub is captured through the development of Smith Mountain Lake, created by damming the Roanoke and Blackwater Rivers. Initially built for electricity generation, the lake evolved into a popular destination with marinas, homes, and even a state park. The narrative also highlights its cultural significance, including Hollywood's involvement in the area. This account reflects the duality of growth while preserving elements of the region's agricultural past.
