Why read it?
1 author picked Bryson City Tales as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this book because it’s all about small-town America. I found it wonderfully written and heartwarming, and I learned a lot of new things about mountain medicine. For example, how did this young doctor, with a lot of book knowledge and skills but not a lot of “mountain street” smarts, face his first patient? Hint: it wasn’t a human.
Beautifully written, with lots of descriptions of a place I love, this book made me laugh and surprised me. I highly recommend this book!
From Catherine's list on Smoky Mountain history.
