| The West |
Join us in a magnificent journey through western North Carolina and meet a few of the dedicated people working diligently to preserve our past and our heritage.
William Cecil, Jr., Chief Executive Officer of the Biltmore Company, takes us on a tour of one of the largest personal homes in the country. Preserved exactly as George Vanderbilt left it, the Biltmore is a beautiful piece of North Carolina's living history.
Eustace Conway created Turtle Island Preserve through sheer force of will and lives within its boundaries, teaching people how to return to nature and live in harmony with the forces that shape our lives.
Hugh Morton's family purchased Grandfather Mountain, home of the annual Highland Games, in 1885. Through their kindness and dedication, Grandfather Mountain has become one of the largest, privately owned conservancies in the country.
Robert Bushyhead, a Cherokee Indian Elder, lives on the Qualla Boundary where he works to preserve the Cherokee language Kituhwa.
