"EAST TENNESSEE STORIES: THE LAND, ITS PEOPLE AND THE GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK"

http://www.etptv.org/images/image/ETS%20Sig%203.jpgThis documentary takes an in-depth look at one of the most recognizable geographic features in East Tennessee . . . our Great Smoky Mountains National Park. It is one of the most contentious and unusual park establishments in the history of the National Park Service.

This special program explores the park’s uncommon creation and how it came to be known as a ‘gift of the people.’ Delving into the industry that changed the park, how the park shaped the people and how the people shaped the park; the documentary offers a unique and comprehensive view of what many of us consider to be our own backyard.

The feature-length program, "East Tennessee Stories: The Land, Its People and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park," premiered on Sunday, Sept. 27 on ETPtv. It will re-air on Thursday, Oct. 8 at 8 p.m.
