    I absolutely must read some of her poetry. Be great getting my mind else where, off the pandemic.

      We think that's a great idea. The historian mentioned in the video, David Deskins, has published a collection of her works. There were three volumes that are on sale at the museum, but they're also collected into a large volume that's available on Amazon. We also ran across this site that has most of her poems available to read online though: www.poetryexplorer.net/author.php?aid=SMITH%2C%20EFFIE%20WALLER. Thanks so much for watching!

      @@pikevillehistorymoments7860; I'm all in, love the idea of her monthly poems - Appalachian seasons are wonderful.
