SKETCHES in SEARCH of a NOVEL By
THE ROAD TO NOWHERE: SKETCHES IN SEARCH OF A NOVEL by MATTHEW L. FORSYTHE (Under the Direction of Reginald McKnight) ABSTRACT The Road to Nowhere is a novel about David Kingman, a math teacher from the fictional town of Midfield, Ohio. The plot itself is straightforward: one Friday in October, Dave skips school. He is determined to climb Shuckstack, a mountain in the Smokies that he once hiked with his Grandpa, but his plan devolves, transformed into picaresque encounters with characters that distract, harass, and befriend him along the way. Modeled after a trail guide, the novel‘s structure reflects this fragmentation. The sketches are narrative prose, but they also incorporate maps, photographs, and even mathematics assignments. Many occur on the roads and trails that link Midfield to Shuckstack, while others explore the events from Dave‘s past that forged his peculiar character. The novel is preceded by a critical introduction, ―On Amusement Parks, Maps, and the Perils of Realism: Fragmented Thoughts on a Sketchy Creation,‖ which examines the origin and development of the manuscript. The essay touches on places and people in the author‘s life that have influenced the novel‘s content; it also discusses the project‘s structure and works of literature that provided inspiration. The title of the novel is a reference to an abandoned construction project within Great Smoky Mountains National Park, an incomplete road that suggests a metaphor for Dave‘s quest and his life as a whole. The subtitle is a nod to the fragmented presentation and the ongoing nature of the work. -

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY CIRCULAR 646 Origin of the Brown Mountain Light in North Carolina Origin of the Brown Mountain Light in North Carolina By George Rogers Mansfield GEOLOGICAL SURVEY CIRCULAR 646 Washington 1971 United States Department of the Interior ROGERS C. B. MORTON, Secretory Geological Survey W. A. Radlinski, Acting Director Free on application to the U.S. Geological Survey, Washmgton, D.C 20242 Brown Mountain--in the Blue Ridge country of western North Carolina--is the stage and setting for the intermit tent performances of the "mysterious lights" that have provoked legend and song since the beginning of the century. In 1922, responding t0 a general inter est in the lights, tt U.S. Geological Survey sent geologist George R. Mansfield to Brown Mountain to under take a thorough investigation of the reported phenomenon. Mansfield's meth od of study and his conclusions were released to the press in 1922. Because of the present interest in Brown Moun tain shown by visitors to this scenic area, George R. Mansfield's report to the press is reproduced here just as it was written a half century ago.
