• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Massanutten, a 50-mile-long mountain range, ends in a striking peak in the Shenandoah Valley of western Virginia, splitting the Blue Ridge Mountains fromthe Alleghenies and the North and South Forks of theShenandoah River. Once an area where Native Americansdwelled and perhaps cultivated the land, Massanutten boasted healing springs that blossomed to become a four-season resort. Private homes intermingle with a conference center, timeshares, and condominiums in an area of preserved woodland heritage. This volume chronicles the history and development of this part of the mountain range, from its use as a Civil War lookout point to a modern-day ski resort complete with golfing and a water park. Included are glimpses of sports, business, and political notables like Lance Armstrong, Del Webb, and Bob Mathias, who have made their marks here--either as guests or in the development of the resort itself.

Autorenporträt

The author served in the armed forces for over thirty years. During his travels, he has seen conflict, assault on U.S. consulate, other acts of terror and vengeance by people who seemed to have lost hope. In searching for God, he has seen many cultures of the world, leading him to the Word, telling him to learn, pray and watch (Mark 13:33). This is the inspiration behind this book, The Last Day.
