The September 29th Tennessean reports that southeast Tennessee is making an effort to attract tourists for the upcoming 150th anniversary of the Civil War. The Southeast Tennessee Tourism Association has put together a driving tour and a brochure showing 47 sites in the ten-county region called "Civil War Trails: Fighting for the Rails."
Nearby North Georgia already has "The Blue and Gray Trail Guide for Northwest Georgia."
Hopefully, between the two trails, they will get some much-needed tourism dough.
