About the Cover
The cover photograph of Falling Spring near Hot Springs was made in 1996 by Hullihen Williams Moore, a former member of the State Corporation Commission. Work from Moore's book, Shenandoah: Views of Our National Park, will be exhibited August through October, 2007, at the Museum of theShenandoah Valley in Winchester.
A review of the book appeared in the June/July 2005 issue of Virginia Lawyer, and can be downloaded at www.vsb.org/site/publications/valawyer/virginia-lawyer-magazine-june-july-2005. An original print of Falling Spring was presented last summer to Virginia's Legal Aid Award winner, Jill A. Hanken of Richmond.
