Appalachian Mountain Books

Participation in Events 

For hundreds of regional events since 1982, Appalachian Mountain Books has provided an attractive display of regional books for sale. Passers-by are often amazed at the breath and depth of regional books available today. Events attended have ranged from music festivals to craft shows to local celebrations to academic gatherings. They have included the Historic Rugby Fall Festival and the Museum of Appalachia’s Homecoming in Tennessee; the Augusta Heritage Festival in Elkins, West Virginia; the Highland Summer Conference at Radford University in Virginia; The Appalachian Writer’s Workshop at Hindman, Kentucky; Mountain Heritage Day at Western Carolina University and the Appalachian Studies Conference.
