Coming soon: Historic Knoxville: The Curious Visitor’s Guide to its Stories and Places.
A comprehensive and engaging guide for both visitors and residents, Historic Knoxville offers a wide-ranging guided tour to scores of places and institutions relevant to the city’s little known but endlessly fascinating history.
The guide encompasses the old brick buildings of Knoxville’s downtown core, historic neighborhoods and parks, and selected cemeteries and statuary–as well as a couple of suggested literary walks. Using the visitor-friendly maps, readers may explore the city’s historic landscape. Included are the expansive campus of the University of Tennessee, and Knoxville’s Civil War sites both obvious and obscure.
Price = $24.95. Available to order from KHP’s online store or local retailers.
