More about the book
The narrative explores the transformation of Summers County post-Civil War, driven by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad's influence. As a hub for goods and travelers, the area flourished with vibrant communities and rich natural beauty. Legends like John Henry epitomize the local spirit, while the shift to diesel engines in the 1950s marked a significant change in the county's identity. Today, tourism and recreation dominate, yet the community remains connected to its heritage through festivals and preservation efforts focused on Hinton's unique architecture.
