| The Mercer Cabin, Gore, Virginia |
| ISBN 978-1460998755 |
The Mercer family tent camped for many years over much
of the eastern part of the United States. They sought the
more primitive campsites eschewing most modern
conveniences. With the emerging popularity of wheeled
campers and the accompanying cacophony of modernity,
they decided to find a refuge they could call their own.
Finding a spot in the Shenandoah Mountains of NW
Virginia, they built a cabin on a forested mountain site.
This book recounts, in humorous anecdotal format, their
adventures in developing their dream.
