Welcome to Bryson City, a small town tucked away in a fold of North Carolinas Smoky Mountains. The scenery is breathtaking, the home cooking cant be beat, the Maroon Devils football team is the pride of the town, and you wont find better steelhead fishing anywhere. But the best part is the people youre about to meet in the pages of Bryson City Seasons.In this joyous sequel to his bestselling Bryson City Tales, Dr. Walt Larimore whisks you along on a journey through the seasons of a Bryson City year. On the way, youll encounter crusty mountain men, warmhearted townspeople, peppery medical personalities, and the hallmarks of a simpler, more wholesome way of life. Culled from the authors experiences as a young doctor settling into rural medical practice, these captivating stories are a celebration of this richly textured miracle called life.The whole book is delightful. My only criticism: there wasnt enough of it Margaret Brand, MD, co-laborer with Dr. Paul Brand in leprosy work in India
