Great Guide to Southern Appalachia

And I would know, having lived there 25 years before coming to the NW. I hiked, fished, and adored those mountains. This guide captures a really nice comination of ecology, culture, things to see, and describes the mountain ranges well. It's a labor of love, obviously, and I learned much that I did not know while living in Tennessee! Buy this guide if you plan on enjoying these lovely old mountains.

An indispensible guide full of facts, fun & accuracy!

The Summerlins have done it again with another great guide book. They capture the allure & feel of the Tennessee mountains and give the reader a complete & accurate way to experience this beautiful area.

Don't head for the hills without this book.

Hey, cityfolk! Want to get away from it all? Try the mountains of Tennessee, home of some of the prettiest, most enjoyable, least crowded outdoor experiences available east of the Mississippi. Before you go, check out the vast array of possibilities in THE LONGSTREET HIGHROAD GUIDE TO THE TENNESSEE MOUNTAINS by Vernon and Cathy Summerlin, prizewinning travel writers who know every inch of the state. They've found the best places to hike, bike, fish, and raft. They show you where to watch wildlife and find wildflowers, and they introduce you to out-of-the-way gems like Rugby (settled by English immigrants in the 1880s) and the still largely undiscovered Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area. However much time you have to spare, the Summerlins will help you make the most of it.
