Tales from Tennessee is a unique collection of anecdotes and vignettes compiled and written by a man who was on the Tennessee Vols beat for more than three decades. The book includes inside stories about such UT greats as Johnny Butler, Johnny Majors, Richmond Flowers, Heath Shuler, and Peyton Manning. There are tales about the great Tennessee matchups against Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Florida, and other Southeastern Conference foes, as well as stories about many of the Vols' legendary bowl games. Author Marvin West also recalls humorous anecdotes about Tennessee's coaching legends, from Robert Neyland in the mid-1920s to today's Vols coach, Phillip Fulmer. In Tales from Tennessee, West writes entertainingly about all of the Vols' most famous legends. Anyone who bleeds Tennessee orange will want to add this book to his or her collection.
