Description

We Were There Too tellls the stories of the women whose leadership helped shape, protect, and sustain the Appalachian Trail Drawing on Appalachian Trail archives, trail-club records, and deep research into the early history of the A.T., Gwenyth Loose tells the previously underrecognized stories of Jean Stephenson, Ruth Blackburn, and Margaret Drummond. They each entered the Appalachian Trail story at a turning point. Their work was practical, persistent, and often behind the scenes, but their influence helped define the Trail’s future. Featuring historical photographs throughout, We Were There Too offers readers a richer understanding of how the Appalachian Trail came to be, and reveals how women have long contributed to the Trail project as organizers, advocates, land-protection champions, maintainers, managers, and stewards. For anyone who cares about the people behind America’s long-distance trails, this book celebrates the women who were there from the beginning.
