From its headwaters in western North Carolina near the Tennessee line, the New River runs north 337 miles, cutting through the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and West Virginia on its way to the Ohio. No big cities inhabit its banks–just a few small towns along the way–and it carries no significant commercial traffic.
The age of the New is debated, but it is certainly one of the world’s oldest river, predating the Atlantic Ocean. This anthology assembles history, poetry, essays and stories by writers who have been inspired by the ancient and secluded stream, and from those whose lives are connected to its flow.
Contributors hail from Ashe, Alleghany, Watauga and Wilkes counties, as well as Virginia and West Virginia.
