What do a vanished island, a dry county famous for whiskey, and a grave surrounded by an unsolved mystery have in common? They are all part of rural Tennessee.
I count down 10 small Tennessee towns and explore the real history, unusual names, legendary stories, and unforgettable characters behind them. Along the way, I visit places connected to Reelfoot Lake, Jack Daniel's, Alvin York, the Scopes Trial, Appalachian moonshine, and the mysterious death of Meriwether Lewis.
I separate documented facts from local legend while uncovering the forgotten corners of the state, from highway exits and courthouse squares to mountain valleys and the Natchez Trace.
