Have you caught the Radio Bristol Book Club? Each month the Birthplace of Country Music and the Bristol Public Library come together to discuss a book which reflects Appalachian culture, music, heritage, or history. The show airs the 4th Thursday of every month at 12 p.m. You can listen online or over the radio; archives of past programs are available online. Check it out at Radio Bristol Book Club!
On December 28, at noon you can
hear the discussion of Grandma Gatewood’s Walk: The Inspiring Story of the
Woman Who Saved the Appalachian Trail by Ben Montgomery.
