| Summary |
"In the fall of 2016, photographer John Guider retraced John Donelson's journey from the present site of Kingsport, Tennessee, to the founding of a settlement now known as Nashville, over 1,000 river miles away. Guider travelled in his hand-built 14 ft. motorless rowing sailboat while photographing the river as it currently exists 240 years later. This photo book contains 150 images from the course of the journey and includes essays providing long-ignored contemporary histories of the Cherokee and the enslaved people who Donelson encountered and brought with him, some of whom did not survive the journey"-- Provided by publisher |
