His character sketches, social portraits of the human condition, and commentaries on everyday sights, sounds, and emotions reflect a keen sensitivity.

Book excerpt: Like Robert Frost before him, Jim Metcalf was a poet whose commentaries on everyday objects and encounters offer a keen insight into man and nature. Compiled by his wife Mary Ann after his death, these poems appear exactly as they were written for television and are intended to share with the reader a rich legacy of love, hope, and understanding. In words that seemed created to go together He fashioned music fit for angel voices. At times fragile . . . delicate as gossamer . . And then in changing mood to fit a sudden passion, They would explode like midnight thunder Echoing through craggy canyons In some desolate and silent land . . . From "The Poet"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Little Greenbrier School is located off Wears Cove Road in the northern section of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is one of four buildings remaining in this historic area and one of two schoolhouses remaining in the park. Having been built in 1881, it served not only as the local school but also as the local church of the Primitive Baptist faith. It is still in use today, not for regular school but for special programs, tours, and church activities. The school has gone through several phases--school, church, park use for programs, homecomings for the local families, and singing schools. Despite being 140 years old and counting, this landmark and other nearby buildings continue to draw thousands of first-time and repeat visitors yearly.

The Federal Writers' Project was one such project by the United States federal government to support writers during the Great Depression by asking them to interview and record the myriad stories and experiences of slavery of former slaves.

A must read for everyone who is interested in US History, race relations and authentic historical research.
