The listing, Tennessee: PAMERICA has ended.
Tennessee has done things its own way. The people who followed Daniel Boone through the Cumberland Gap were forerunners of a mountain culture that still thrives in Tennessee. Isolated from the eastern colonies by the Appalachian Mountains, the people of Tennessee learned to rely on themselves. They're independent. In fact, they're unique. Just listen to the rich twang of the fiddles at the Grand Ole Opry, center of American country music. Or wrap yourself in a colorful, hand-stiched Tennessee quilt. These are Tennessee traditions, but there's more to the state--much more. This is a modern, prosperous state with thriving industry. Blending progress with a strong grasp of the past, Tennessee has given itself a head start on the future.
