Description: The clear waters of Goose Creek originate in Bedford, at Bearwallow Gap, and bisect the county as they gather strength and flow southeast, for fifty miles, toward Huddleston. This book engagingly presents the lives of the people who have relied on the creek, from the Monahassanoes to today. Stories of mining and mills, and of courage and character are told, and the splendid array of natural resources of the creek corridor is detailed.
