For George Ellison, the history of Western North Carolina must be told through the story of the land as well as the people who inhabited the mountains. Host Melinda Penkava talks with Ellison about his latest book, “Mountain Passages” (The History Press, 2005), which details the history of the Great Smoky Mountains and its Cherokee and Mountaineer communities through the writings, legends and topography of Western North Carolina.
