Artus Moser of Buckeye Cove

ARTUS MOSER of BUCKEYE COVE 1985, 29:00
Artus Moser, “a Renaissance man of the mountains,” was born in 1894, and grew up on the Biltmore Estate near Asheville, North Carolina, where his father was a forester. He was the first Appalachian to collect ballads for the Library of Congress.

“Vintage photographs, musical selections, and Moser’s artwork combine in this intimate family interview to reveal a true preservationist of mountain life.” -Booklist
