Those interested in the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe should obtain from
their local library, or by interlibrary loan, "The Journal of John Fontaine."


Fontaine was the minister who accompanied the "Knights" to the top of the
Blue Ridge.  His journal contains his account of this journey.  He was in
company of Spotswood from the beginning, at Williamsburg, through all of the
local stops (and all of the toasts to various important events along the way)
until the end when Spotswood returned to Williamsburg.

This is a marvelous anecdote of our past with many references to those who
made the trek and those met along the way.
