He has written for a wide range of publications, including "Field and Stream," "Fly Fisherman," "Sports Afield," and "Sierra." Camuto is also the book review columnist for "Audubon" and "Gray\'s Sporting Journal" and writes the "Watersheds" column for Trout Unlimited\'s "Trout" magazine..
About author(s): Christopher Camuto is author of "A Fly Fisherman\'s Blue Ridge" and " Another Country " (both available from Georgia).
Through this attempt "to catch glimpses of the Cherokee Mountains beyond the veil of the southern Appalachians," Camuto forges a new consciousness about the complex, conflicted past hidden there and leaves us with an important, thought-provoking book about a haunting American region.
He details the impact of European occupation, and his meditations on the enduring relevance of Cherokee language, thought, and mythology evoke an appreciation of what were once sacred rivers, forests, and mountains.
As the author takes the reader through old-growth forests and ancient myths, he tells of the attempted restoration of Canis rufus, the controversial red wolf, to Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
In the spirit of Thoreau\'s "Walking," Camuto explores the Appalachian summit Country of the Great Smoky Mountains--the historical home of the Cherokee--searching for access to the nature, history, and spirit of a magnificent, if diminished, landscape.
In the widely acclaimed Another Country : Journeying toward the Cherokee Mountains , Christopher Camuto describes the tragic collision of natural and cultural history embedded in the region.
