About Margaret Lynn Brown
The Wild East, Revised Edition: The Wild East explores the social, political, and environmental changes in the Great Smoky Mountains during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Although this national park is most often portrayed as a triumph of wilderness preservation, Margaret Lynn Brown concludes that the largest forested region in the eastern United States is actually a re-created wilderness—a product of restoration and even manipulation of the land. Several hundred years before white settlement, Cherokees farmed and hunted this land.
