ISBN 978-1-893239-80-7. Elise Anderson, Wake Forest University n western North Carolina, communities hundreds of years old are now under assault. Population growth exceeds the carrying capacity of the land and triggers permanent environmental degradation, while the influx of newcomers swamps local traditions, values, and Iadaptations to the surrounding ecosystems. Sound bad? It is, but End of Eden offers hope and illustrates a way to communicate effectively about the very real dangers that threaten the communities, human and natural, of the mountains of North Carolina. A poet and environmentalist, Thomas Rain Crowe is the author of twenty books, including Zoro: My Life in the Appalachian Woods and Drunk on the Wine of the Beloved: 100 Poems of Hafiz. His literary archives have been purchased by Duke University. The topics Crowe addresses in End of Eden are as varied as the mountains he calls home. Throughout the volume, artwork by Robert Johnson illustrates the beauty and biodiversity of western North Carolina. The first of the book’s three sections presents broader perspectives on the ecosystems, history, and cultures of the mountains. The second, a collection of articles and editorials, focuses on local issues and political responses. Crowe concludes with columns from the Smoky Mountain News that capture the vibrancy and promise of the Jackson County Farmer’s Market. The farmers market is one traditional organization that is getting much attention now as a sustainable solution to current economic and environmental problems.
