Download or read book Discovering October Roads written by Harry Moore and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2001-10 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autumn presents a stunning array of colors in rural East Tennessee, and Discovering October Roads is the perfect traveler's companion for better enjoying those scenic views. In a compelling, anecdotal narrative, the book describes seven road trips through the region, discussing not only the leaf colors to be seen but also the geology, landscape, and cultural history to be found along each route. In their introduction, Harry Moore and Fred Brown offer an overview of the geologic history and topography of East Tennessee as well as an accessible explanation of the science behind the changing leaf colors. They also discuss a number of common trees and the autumn color associated with each. In the chapters that follow, the authors' descriptions of road trips are arranged according to three geographic areas: the Blue Ridge, the Valley and Ridge, and the Cumberland Plateau. Complementing the narrative is a wealth of illustrations, including maps, geologic line drawings, and photographs--many of which are reproduced in color. Discovering October Roads will prove an indispensable resource for anyone seeking a deeper appreciation of East Tennessee's fall finery. The Authors: Harry Moore is a geologist with the Tennessee Department of Transportation and the author of A Roadside Guide to the Geology of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park and A Geologic Trip across Tennessee by Interstate 40. Fred Brown is a feature writer and columnist for the Knoxville News-Sentinel. He is the author, with Jeanne McDonald, of Handling Serpents: Three Families and Their Faith and Growing Up Southern: How the South Shapes Writers.

Book excerpt: One chance encounter can change your life forever, which is exactly what Willie Verns will soon discover! He had chosen a life of solitude. Being deprived of a family by the age of two, growing up at Saint Carmel Home for Boys had taught him one thing— he didn’t need anyone. Willie’s deep-seated desire to rebuild the business his parents had created before they were ripped away from him had led to a lucrative farming business. But his self-contained world is about to be shaken. His one small act of kindness to a quiet little boy sends Willie into a tailspin of self-discovery he wasn’t ready to take. He’s left questioning if his life had really been marked by injustice as he’d always believed, or if someone had been there all along, trying to make him recognize what is actually important. Will he stay the course of rigidly excluding others, or will he be awakened to the potential of opening his heart? The choice is his. Rooted is a powerful portrayal of faith, resilience, and love that inspires hope in the heart and encourages the soul.
