“Trips in the Smokies” is an 8-page brochure written by Horace Kephart (1862-1931), author of “Camping and Woodcraft” (1906) and “Our Southern Highlanders” (1913). The 1930 brochure, published by the Bryson City Drug Co., follows one with the same name printed in 1929. The two brochures demonstrate changes in travel opportunities, with Kephart suggesting Bryson City as a jumping off point for Smokies exploration, including a map and directions for traveling from Atlanta to Asheville. This brochure also includes mention of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. Like the 1929 brochure, the one from 1930 was the personal property of Kephart and is stamped as such.
