Local historian George Ellison and his wife, watercolorist Elizabeth Ellison, will present Horace Kephart’s “lost” novel Smoky Mountain Magic, now in print for the first time 80 years after its completion. Kephart is the author of several classic regional books, including Our Southern Highlanders and Camping and Woodcraft. He, along with friend George Masa, was instrumental in establishing Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
