The Heart of the Alleghanies

BEYOND IRON WAYS. (continued 2)

Reading edition

‘Where, collected all, In one impetuous torrent, down the steep It thundering shoots, and shakes the country round: At first, an azure sheet, it rushes broad; Then whitening by degrees as prone it falls, And from the loud-resounding rocks below Dashed in a cloud of foam, it sends aloft A hoary mist, and forms a ceaseless shower.’ ”

The other points of interest are the valley of Nacoochee, Mount Yonah, the cascades of Estatoa visible from Rabun gap, and the Toccoa Falls, five or six miles from Tallulah. At Toccoa the journey can be ended by the traveler striking the Atlanta & Charlotte Air Line.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
