Longstreet Highroad Mountain Guides give detailed information on hiking, mountain biking, fishing, hunting, skiing, and other mountain sports of interest to outdoor enthusiasts. There are also many historic sites, special restaurants, and bed-and-breakfast places noted. These books are packed with detailed information for both the experienced outdoors traveler or first-time explorer. No one should visit the mountains without a Longstreet Highroad Mountain Guide.

Don't head for the hills without this book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Longstreet Highroad Guide to the Tennessee Mountains (Longstreet Highroad Guides) (Paperback)
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.

Great Guide to Southern Appalachia,
This review is from: Longstreet Highroad Guide to the Tennessee Mountains (Longstreet Highroad Guides) (Paperback)
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.
