Senator Thomas Clingman made an 1858 journey to measure the mountain, and it was called by his name until being renamed Kuwohi, restoring the original name given by the Cherokee people. Scarred by logging, invasive species, and modern pollution, the mountain endures. Through lush narratives and fascinating detail, author Marci Spencer presents the natural and human history of this iconic destination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHolding a Master's of Science degree from East Tennessee State University, Marci Spencer is a volunteer for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park at Clingmans Dome.
