Cold Mountain
Icy Appalachian summit
Cold Mountain is a novel by Charles Frazier (1997) following a Confederate soldier's journey home through the North Carolina mountains at the end of the Civil War.
The title refers to an actual peak in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The book won the National Book Award and was adapted into a 2003 film.
I finally read Cold Mountain on vacation.
