Reports

This undated manuscript titled, “Source material for a study of the Great Smokies,” is by Robert Lindsay Mason (1874-) and Myron Haliburton Avery (1899–1952), president of the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club and chairman of the board of the Appalachian Trail Conference. The paper is a bibliography of material published about the region. The manuscript was collected by George Masa (1885-1933). Born in Japan and raised as Shoji Endo, Masa came to the United States in 1906. In 1915, he moved to Asheville and was known variously as G. M. Iizuka, George M. Iizuka, and Masahara Iizuka, before adopting George Masa as his professional name. Known for his photography, Masa was active in the Carolina Appalachian Trail Club, which merged with the Carolina Mountain Club, and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
