Johnny Vardeman: Former Times editors book describes life in Helen in its early days

Helen is a good example, once a thriving sawmill town, then a tourist destination before becoming the popular busy White County resort with a Bavarian theme as it is today. Alma Bowen, retired executive editor of The Times, has written a novel that weaves in the history of Helen as well as other facets of the surrounding mountains.
