Stretched between the
Great Smoky Mountains and the
Mississippi levees, Tennessee history offers a study in contrasts. The heritage of the Volunteer State makes room for both the quiet of a
Walland glade and the roar of an
Opryland crowd. Grab one of our Tennessee history book titles for a masterclass in variety that includes
Piggly Wiggly founder Clarence Saunders, pioneering architect
Moses McKissack,
Nashville ghost tours, the
Knoxville World’s Fair and the best barbecue in
Memphis.
