The historical facts in the first edition of Touring the East Tennessee Backroads have not
changed much since the book was first published in 1993, but highway construction and
development has altered the routes of the 13 tours. For this second edition, the author
drove over 3,000 miles to update the tours where people such as Daniel Boone, Davy
Crockett, Sam Houston, Andrew Jackson, Sequoyah, Nancy Ward, and Clarence Darrow
once traveled the same backroads.
