Welcome to the audio-described version of the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail's official print brochure. Through text and audio descriptions of photos, illustrations, and maps, this version interprets the two-sided color brochure that visitors receive when visiting the Overmountain Victory Trail. The brochure explores the history of the trail, some of its highlights, and information for planning how to visit and explore the trail. This audio version lasts about 85 minutes which we have divided into seventeen sections, as a way to improve the listening experience. Sections 1 through 9 cover the front of the brochure and include information regarding the introduction to the brochure, an overview of the American Revolution and its move to the southern colonies, information about some of the leaders on both the Patriot and British sides and descriptions of some of their portraits, and ways and places to explore the trail today with descriptions of photographs of several locations. Sections 10 through 17 cover the back of the brochure which consists of a day-by-day account of the Patriots marching the trail, a map of where the trail stretches across South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia and what towns, cities, and parks the trail follows through.
