5.0 out of 5 stars great companion to driving the Trace - very well-written, June 15, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Traveling the Trace: A Complete Tour Guide to the Historic Natchez Trace from Nashville to Natchez (Paperback)

This is a "must" companion piece for anyone who drives the Natchez Trace, whether for 4 miles or 400. Without the book's detailed information about the Trace's history, the towns it runs through, and the many recreational opportunities along the way, the Trace would be just another road. The Summerlin's book and their subject remind us that life is indeed a journey, not a destination

Fun reading about historic location of which I am a student. I bought it to take on a leisurely tour of the area. Ill health has prevented tour so far, but still looking forward to it with this book in hand.

This guide has given us a chance to really enjoy traveling the Natchez Trace. We have seen place we did not even think about seeing and have really enjoyed our time there. I have lived in Mississippi all my life but never really enjoyed the Trace until getting this book and following its suggestions for places to visit and things to see.
